For the Kafka job scheduler, caught exception from VDBLogger, schema "kafka_config" does not exist

When using v7.2.1, I can use --config-schema and --operator options to configure and launch Kafka job scheduler, so that the Kafka job scheduler can use the same schema and DB user as our application.

 

But after upgrading to v7.2.2-1, I can still use --config-schema and --operator options to configure Kafka job scheduler, but when launching the scheduler, I got the following error log:

I think if --config-schema is explicitly provided, the scheduler shouldn't depend on the schema "kafka_config" again.

 

Even after I created an empty "kafka_config" schema, I still got another error log:

But the kafka_events table exists in the my specified config schema. Why it still requires kafka_config.kafka_events table?

 

Is this a bug? Is there a workaround? Thanks in advance!

Comments

  • Does anyone have suggestion for this problem?

  • The good news are that it seems the Kafka job scheduler can actually consume messages even though there're error messages in the log file. It seems that logs will always be writen to kafka_config.kafka_events table no matter whether --config-schema is presented. 

  • How did you solve this problem?

    I'm running into the same issue.

     

    thanks

  • Anyone resolve this problem?

    So many Vertica questions are unanswered here. I'm beginning to think HP abandoned this forum. Just use StackOverflow I guess.
