> I am using the kafka-producer-shell.sh script without the --compress option

> The only producer.properties file I can find is at:

> In there is:

> But the messages come out gobbledegook unless I use a client that understands compressed messages, and in that client it identifies the bit as set to 1, gzip compression.

> This seems to be a bug in ConsoleProducer. It also compresses messages and
> ignores the --compress flag. Could you file a jira?
