kafka-connect：连接器接收器cassandra的分布式配置出错

Question

I get task error for a distributed configuration for a connector sink cassandra. I was running the command :

curl -s localhost:8083/connectors/cassandraSinkConnector2/status | jq

to get the status

You can find below the configuration of the connector.

Answer 1

The root error is

java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: io.confluent.monitoring.clients.interceptor.MonitoringConsumerInterceptor

The Monitoring Interceptors are part of Confluent Platform. You can either disable their use in your Kafka Connect worker config, or better, make sure that the /usr/share/java/monitoring-interceptors/monitoring-interceptors-5.2.1.jar JAR is available to your Kafka Connect worker.

The new error you're seeing is

org.apache.kafka.connect.errors.DataException: 
Record with a null key was encountered.  This connector requires that records from Kafka contain the keys for the Cassandra table. 
Please use a transformation like org.apache.kafka.connect.transforms.ValueToKey to create a key with the proper fields.

I'd suggest using a Single Message Transform as suggested in the error to correctly key your data. You can see an example of doing this here and the documentation for the transform here .
