[jira] [Created] (KAFKA-1817) AdminUtils.createTopic vs kafka-topics.sh --create with partitions

Jason Kania created KAFKA-1817:
----------------------------------

             Summary: AdminUtils.createTopic vs kafka-topics.sh --create with partitions
                 Key: KAFKA-1817
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-1817
             Project: Kafka
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 0.8.2
         Environment: debian linux current version  up to date
            Reporter: Jason Kania


When topics are created using AdminUtils.createTopic in code, no partitions folder is created The zookeeper shell shows this.

ls /brokers/topics/foshizzle
[]

However, when kafka-topics.sh --create is run, the partitions folder is created:

ls /brokers/topics/foshizzle
[partitions]

The unfortunately useless error message "KeeperErrorCode = NoNode for /brokers/topics/periodicReading/partitions" makes it unclear what to do. When the topics are listed via kafka-topics.sh, they appear to have been created fine. It would be good if the exception was wrapped by Kafka to suggested looking in the zookeeper shell so a person didn't have to dig around to understand what the meaning of this path is...
