Hmmm... I don't know for sure, but any chance a re-boot of Zookeeper would help?
Is your topic still in /admin/delete_topics? (On Zookeeper I mean) Also, how important is it to know what happened as opposed to just getting to a runnable state again? In other words, what time/effort will it cost to re-create your kafka topics from scratch? Is it worth it to troubleshoot? In my own testing recently, because I was on VMs and had control of the software that loaded the topics, I have wiped the Kafka VM several times, re-installed Kafka and re-done the configs (from my notes), then deleted everything related to Kafka in Zookeeper and run it all agin - but my cost for doing that was under two hours....
