> When I found that {{bin/kafka-consumer-offset-checker.sh}} was deprecated and didn't work, I checked the docs and ran the following instead (using new consumer, and coordinator vs zookeeper):

> I tracked this down to the following. The request builder that is instantiated [here|https://github.com/apache/kafka/blob/trunk/core/src/main/scala/kafka/admin/AdminClient.scala#L198] has its {{partitions}} set to {{ALL_TOPIC_PARTITIONS}} which is null (v2 or newer to request all topic partitions). Later, [when sending the request|https://github.com/apache/kafka/blob/trunk/clients/src/main/java/org/apache/kafka/clients/NetworkClient.java#L375], it's converted to a string. But {{partitions}} above can only be null when built that way, so [this|https://github.com/apache/kafka/blob/trunk/clients/src/main/java/org/apache/kafka/common/requests/OffsetFetchRequest.java#L76] throws the exception.
> I'm quite new to Kafka, so I'm still not entirely sure if I'm doing something wrong or if this is indeed a bug. As such, any pointers or advice would be much appreciated.
