Nifi Version 1.1.0.2.1.0.0-165 1 - Cannot get GetKafka connector to connect to Kafka - Single server - No Keberos - Zookeeper Port confirmed

I am unable to get the GetKafka connector to connect to Kafka.

I have a single server install of HDF-2.1. NiFi, Kafka, and ZooKeeper are all installed on the same server. There is no security. I have verified the ZooKeeper port by connecting to ZooKeeper from other machines in this manner:

ex)$ telnet 192.168.99.100 2181 Trying 192.168.99.100... Connected to cb675348f5c8. Escape character is'^]' (Ctrl C to disconnect)

Here is the error I get from the GetKafka connector:

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

What version of the Kafka broker are you running?

If its installed through HDF, then it is probably Kafka 0.10.x and you should try using ConsumeKafka_0_10.

In general it is best to use the processor that goes with the broker version, so..

GetKakfa - Kafka 0.8

ConsumeKafka - Kafka 0.9

ConsumeKafka_0_10 - Kafka 0.1.0

I'm not sure how the to identify the Kafka broker version easily. I did find the the file kafka_2.10-0.10.1.2.1.0.0-165.jar.asc in the /libs folder where Kafka is installed so I am assuming I am running Kafka 0.10.1.

I did get both the ConsumeKafka and ConsumeKafka_0_10 connectors to work.

Thanks.

Now off to figure out why the PutHiveStreaming doesn't work, but that will be for a different post.
