Hey all, I have seen already in archive an email concerning this, but as a solution it has been said to upgrade kafka version to 2.1. In my case, kafka is already up to date.
NOTE: Issue is on since this morning. Specifying the problem, I'm running two kafka-streams stateful applications. From the very beginning of the app lifecycle, instances struggle to reassign correctly partitions between them which eventually leads them to org.apache.kafka.streams.errors.StreamsException: stream-thread > [pws-budget-streams-client-mapper-StreamThread-13] Failed to rebalance. Due to Caused by: org.apache.kafka.common.errors.TimeoutException: Timeout expired > while initializing transactional state in 60000ms. In the same time I'm observing a big lag on 2 partitions of the topic which my streams are consuming. The issue had started just this morning, whereas applications are for already 1 month running without issues. One thing I did before it, was the reassignment of this two partitions to different nodes. Why? To fight over CPU consumption on one of our brokers (it wasn't balanced evenly). I have no clue if it has anything to do with problems on kafka-streams, though. Anyone encountered similar problems? Cheers, Paweł
