Hello, Please find the server.properties info. The Kafka server is running on a Ubuntu 14.XX instance.
I have removed all the commented section. So the data I post below would be the only properties we are using for our server. All the other properties are commented(so I guess the default values are being used). Also just to add I can see in the log files that topic index segments are getting deleted at regular intervals. I am only having issues with the consumer offset topic. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- broker.id=0 Switch to enable topic deletion or not, default value is false #delete.topic.enable=true num.network.threads=3 num.io.threads=8 socket.send.buffer.bytes=102400 socket.receive.buffer.bytes=102400 socket.request.max.bytes=104857600 log.dirs=/tmp/kafka-logs num.partitions=1 num.recovery.threads.per.data.dir=1 offsets.topic.replication.factor=1 transaction.state.log.replication.factor=1 transaction.state.log.min.isr=1 log.retention.hours=168 log.segment.bytes=1073741824 <+11073741824> log.retention.check.interval.ms=300000 zookeeper.connect=localhost:2181 zookeeper.connection.timeout.ms=6000 group.initial.rebalance.delay.ms=0 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Regards, KAUSHIK NAMBIAR On Wed, Sep 19, 2018, 1:55 AM Liam Clarke <liam.cla...@adscale.co.nz> wrote: > Odd that the log compaction isn't working.
