> I was upgrading our topologies to storm-0.9.3 this [commit|https://github.com/apache/storm/commit/2596e335f27a57784a93a57823bd93dde587909f] introduced a change that threw me for a loop. When submitting my topology I got the following error.
> {code}
> [main] ERROR storm.kafka.DynamicBrokersReader - Couldn't connect to zookeeper
>  java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Don't know how to convert null to int
>  	at backtype.storm.utils.Utils.getInt(Utils.java:301) ~[storm-core-0.9.3.jar:0.9.3]

> {code}
> It took me a while to figure out that this error stems from missing the {code}backtype.storm.Config.STORM_ZOOKEEPER_CONNECTION_TIMEOUT{code} property in the conf map provided to the {code}storm.kafka.DynamicBrokersReader{code} constructer. It would be nice to check the required configuration parameters and throw a RuntimeException if any are missing.
