Description

Hi,

I have a cluster that only has zookeeper consumers, so I set up a kafka_zk consumer. When I curl to make sure everything is reading properly, the topics show up, but the consumers do not appear. In addition, I get the following error when I include the kafka consumer (it's currently commented out because of it):

msg":"failed to get partition count","type":"module","coordinator":"consumer","class":"kafka","name":"cars_production","topic":"__consumer_offsets","error":"kafka server: Request was for a topic or partition that does not exist on this broker."}

What could be making it so there are no consumers listed?

Research direction

Start by reproducing the curl request with the kafka_zk consumer configuration and compare the topics output with the missing consumer list. Investigate the reported __consumer_offsets partition error and determine why consumers are not discovered; done means the cause is identified and consumers appear correctly in the output.
