Consumer not receiving messages, kafka console, new consumer api, Kafka 0.9

Question

I am doing the Kafka Quickstart for Kafka 0.9.0.0.

I have zookeeper listening at localhost:2181 because I ran

bin/zookeeper-server-start.sh          


        

Answer 1

Your localhost is the foo here. if you replace the localhost word for the actual hostname, it should work.

like this:

producer

./bin/kafka-console-producer.sh --broker-list \
sandbox-hdp.hortonworks.com:9092 --topic test

consumer:

./bin/kafka-console-consumer.sh --topic test --from-beginning \    
--bootstrap-server bin/kafka-console-consumer.sh --new-consumer \
--topic test --from-beginning \
--bootstrap-server localhost:9092
