Hi, thanks for your response.

Is there any chance the offset is never committed on the "__consumer_offsets” 
topic, although auto commit is enabled every 5 seconds?
We are checking daily and the offset is always set to NULL.

Hi Lorenzo,

Sounds like it is caused by this bug:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-13636
If you're not in the versions of fixed version list or newer, please try to 
upgrade it.

Thanks.
Luke
