------------------------------------

             Summary: Kafka state checks conflict with kafka-python pip package
                 Key: AMBARI-16778
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AMBARI-16778
             Project: Ambari
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: ambari-agent, ambari-server
    Affects Versions: 2.2.2
         Environment: Linux/Ubuntu 14.04
            Reporter: Marco Silva


Kafka is running but Ambari shows it is in INSTALLED state

Brokers are installed and runnig, but Brokers turns into the red state. 
ambari-server.logs shows that the Kafka broker turned into INSTALLED state briefly after starting the brokers.

I've tried various things to debug the issue, until I stumbled upon this Post on the Hortonworks Community Forum : 

https://community.hortonworks.com/questions/28296/kafka-is-running-but-ambari-shows-it-is-in-install.html

Solution: pip uninstall kafka-python

This should NOT be a conflict. kafka-python is one of the most used packages to use kafka in a Python Environment. 


To Replicate: 

Setup clean ambari env
Install Kafka
Check Kafka is green
install kafka-python : pip install kafka-python
wait some time -> Kafka goes Red
uninstall kafka-python -> Kafka goes Green.
