             Summary: New Kafka spout crashes if partitions are reassigned while tuples are in-flight
                 Key: STORM-2104
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/STORM-2104
             Project: Apache Storm
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: storm-kafka
    Affects Versions: 2.0.0, 1.1.0
            Reporter: Stig Rohde Døssing
            Assignee: Stig Rohde Døssing


The new KafkaSpout may throw NPEs if partitions are reassigned while tuples are in-flight. The ack function assumes that the spout instance is always responsible for tuples it emitted, which isn't true if partitions were reassigned since the tuple was emitted. The fail function also assumes that failed tuples should be replayed, which is useless if the tuple is for a partition the spout isn't assigned, since it then can't commit the tuple if it succeeds. Both functions should check that the spout instance is responsible for the incoming tuple before scheduling it for retry or adding it to the acked list.
