Kafka in Kubernetes - Marking the coordinator dead for group

Question

I am pretty new to Kubernetes and wanted to setup Kafka and zookeeper with it. I was able to setup Apache Kafka and Zookeeper in Kubernetes using StatefulSets. I followed this and this to build my manifest file. I made 1 replica of kafka and zookeeper each and also used persistent volumes. All pods are running and ready.

I tried to expose kafka and used Service for this by specifying a nodePort(30010). Seemingly this would expose kafka to the outside world where they can send messages to the kafka broker and also consume from it.

But in my Java application, I made a consumer and added the bootstrapServer as <ip-address>:30010, the following logs were displayed:

INFO o.a.k.c.c.i.AbstractCoordinator - Discovered coordinator kafka-0.kafka-hs.default.svc.cluster.local:9093 (id: 2147483647 rack: null) for group workerListener.
INFO o.a.k.c.c.i.AbstractCoordinator - Marking the coordinator kafka-0.kafka-hs.default.svc.cluster.local:9093 (id: 2147483647 rack: null) dead for group workerListener

Interestingly, when I tested the cluster using kubectl commands, I was able to produce and consume messages:

kubectl run -ti --image=gcr.io/google_containers/kubernetes-kafka:1.0-10.2.1 produce --restart=Never --rm \
 -- kafka-console-producer.sh --topic test --broker-list kafka-0.kafka-hs.default.svc.cluster.local:9093 done;

kubectl run -ti --image=gcr.io/google_containers/kubernetes-kafka:1.0-10.2.1 consume --restart=Never --rm -- kafka-console-consumer.sh --topic test --bootstrap-server kafka-0.kafka-hs.default.svc.cluster.local:9093

Can someone point me in the right direction why it is marking the coordinator as dead?

What is kafka-0? The addresses for services are like my-svc.my-namespace.svc.cluster.local, in your case would be kafka-hs.default.svc.cluster.local. Why the kafka-0 prefix? – Phebephedra

I don't have experience in kafka, but when I have to deploy a new service I start looking on the oficial helm chart to have a baseline. In this case, it would be github.com/kubernetes/charts/tree/master/incubator/kafka Maybe it's too much if you are new on kubernetes, but if you have some experience with templates it should be no problem. Note: helm is the pseudo-official package manager for kubernetes – Edik

@fiunchinho kafka-0 is the name of pod that the StatefulSet made. I'm not sure why it used the pod name in the start – Checker

@gmiretti Thanks for this. I just gave it a quick look and found in the limitations of it "Kafka cluster is not accessible via an external endpoint". But I want to access it from the outside world, that's where I am having trouble. – Checker

try add " kafka-0.kafka-hs.default.svc.cluster.local ipadrrss " to your consumer's hosts file. – Horoscopy

I had the same problem as you last week and solved it, so it's possible to expose Kafka outside Kubernetes!

Solution: In your Kafka broker-config.yaml you should map cluster external IP to your local DNS

kafka-I.kafka-hs.default.svc.cluster.local:9093

How To:

add those to your server.properties file:

listener.security.protocol.map=INTERNAL_PLAINTEXT:PLAINTEXT,EXTERNAL_PLAINTEXT:PLAINTEXT
inter.broker.listener.name=INTERNAL_PLAINTEXT

if you have an init which run before server.properties you should add those:

# add unique label to each pod
kubectl label pods ${HOSTNAME} kafka-set-component=${HOSTNAME}

EXTERNAL_LISTENER_IP=<YOUR_KUBERNETES_CLUSTER_EXTERNAL_IP>
EXTERNAL_LISTENER_PORT=$((30093 + ${HOSTNAME##*-}))

sed -i "s/#listeners=PLAINTEXT:\/\/:9092/listeners=INTERNAL_PLAINTEXT:\/\/0.0.0.0:9092,EXTERNAL_PLAINTEXT:\/\/0.0.0.0:9093/" /etc/kafka/server.properties
sed -i "s/#advertised.listeners=PLAINTEXT:\/\/your.host.name:9092/advertised.listeners=INTERNAL_PLAINTEXT:\/\/$HOSTNAME.broker.kafka.svc.cluster.local:9092,EXTERNAL_PLAINTEXT:\/\/$EXTERNAL_LISTENER_IP:$EXTERNAL_LISTENER_PORT/" /etc/kafka/server.properties

otherwise you should find a way to add replace configurations in your server.properties at runtime.

Notice that you must have those lines commented in your server.properties file

#listeners=PLAINTEXT://:9092
#advertised.listeners=PLAINTEXT://your.host.name:9092

Services: Create headless service to map local DNS and a service for each broker you have:

# A headless service to create DNS records
---
apiVersion: v1
kind: Service
metadata:
  name: broker
  namespace: kafka
spec:
  ports:
  - port: 9092
  # [podname].broker.kafka.svc.cluster.local
  clusterIP: None
  selector:
    app: kafka
---
apiVersion: v1
kind: Service
metadata:
  name: broker-0
  namespace: kafka
spec:
  type: NodePort
  ports:
  - port: 9093
    nodePort: 30093
  selector:
    kafka-set-component: kafka-0
---
apiVersion: v1
kind: Service
metadata:
  name: broker-1
  namespace: kafka
spec:
  type: NodePort
  ports:
  - port: 9093
    nodePort: 30094
  selector:
    kafka-set-component: kafka-1
---
apiVersion: v1
kind: Service
metadata:
  name: broker-2
  namespace: kafka
spec:
  type: NodePort
  ports:
  - port: 9093
    nodePort: 30095
  selector:
    kafka-set-component: kafka-2

Notes: - If you are running on GKE:

1. YOUR_KUBERNETES_CLUSTER_EXTERNAL_IP which declared in the server.properties init can be found via gcloud compute instances list
2. Also you must give permission to the firewall gcloud compute firewall-rules create kafka-external --allow tcp:30093,tcp:30094,tcp:30095

Hi, thanks for the detailed response but can you please tell me what to change in my kafka.yml manifest. I don't have a server.properties file but i think in my manifest file i do override some of the values. Can you point out which values to override? – Checker

Welcome, every kafka has server.properties. you are overriding some of his properties in your yaml. You can add a server.properties to your configuration and continue with the answer above – Phototelegraph
