Hi Vikas, Even getting it to pass process start, eventually there will be other breaking exceptions (last time I had them from nio). The reason behind this is Kafka primarily tested for Linux, so it is not really tracked for Windows compatibility. I never got it (Kafka > 3.0) working natively on Microsoft OSes.
Maybe you should ask to the vendor that provides "The Feeder Automation Manager Message Bus". Good luck.
