Go to your Ambari >> Kafka >> Configs and look for the port the Kafka broker listens on

If it is HDP sandbox 2.4, it will most probably be on 6667 and therefore you should be running the below command instead

./kafka-console-producer.sh --broker-list sandbox.hortonworks.com:6667 --topic test1

Let me know if this works. Else, post with the proper exception and we can look deeper.

@Hadoop Yarn

what exception you are getting? it looks a sandbox so broker port is 6667 .. can you try this command

/kafka-console-producer.sh --broker-list hostname:6667 --topic kafkatopic
