             Summary: Remove internal converter configuration from example property files
                 Key: KAFKA-4882
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-4882
             Project: Kafka
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Gwen Shapira


Our internal converter configuration is shown in connect-distributed.properties and connect-standalone.properties.

This tempts users to change it.
In particular, they seem to believe it needs to be identical to key/value converters.

In reality, Connect doesn't deal well with anything other than schemaless JSON as the internal converter. Users get errors and find it hard to figure out what went wrong (since this is internal, they are not expected to).

Let's stop tempting users into shooting their own feet?
