Storm Ui error kafka spout, not using HDP

Question

I Have Storm 1.1.1 installed on my machine and on my other machine I'm using Kafka version 0.10.0.1. Both services are connected with Zookeeper version 3.4.6

I succesfully deployed my topology, that looked like this:

public class SOTopology  {
    public static void main (String[] args ) throws Exception {
        final String brokers = args[0];
        final String kafkaTopic = args[1];
        final String mongo_uri = args[2];
        final String mongo_collection = args[3];
    
        TopologyBuilder topology = new TopologyBuilder();
        topology.setSpout("KafkaSpout",new KafkaSpout<>(KafkaSpoutConfig.builder(brokers, kafkaTopic).build()), 1);
        topology.setBolt("FilterBolt", new Filterbolt(),1).shuffleGrouping("KafkaSpout");
        topology.setBolt("TagCountBolt", new TagCountBolt(),1).shuffleGrouping("FilterBolt");
        topology.setBolt("TopicBolt", new TopicBolt(),1).shuffleGrouping("FilterBolt");
        topology.setBolt("MongoDBBolt",new MongoDBBolt(),1).shuffleGrouping("TagCountBolt").shuffleGrouping("TopicBolt");

        Config conf = new Config();
        conf.setDebug(true);
        conf.put("mongo.uri", mongo_uri);
        conf.put("mongo.collection", mongo_collection);
        conf.setMaxSpoutPending(40);
        conf.setNumWorkers(10);
        conf.setDebug(true);

        StormSubmitter.submitTopology("StackOverflowTopology", conf, topology.createTopology());
    }
}

When I go to my StormUI I get the following message Offset lags for kafka not supported for older versions. Please update kafka spout to latest version. Offset lags for kafka not supported for older versions. Please update kafka spout to latest version. I am not using HDP but I'm already using the latest storm version and my storm-clients.jar and storm-kafka-client.jar are both for version 1.1.1. Anyone Who has an idea how I can fix this?

EDIT: In the possible duplicate they are using HDP and they fixed it by just updating their HDP cluster. Since I'm not running it on HDP, I can't really update my HDP cluster and I'm certain that my storm is the right version.

As mentioned in the linked question: The solution is upgrading to a recent version of the platform.

In case you for some reason manage to avoid the distribution this was perhaps not possible/practical at time of asking the question but as we are several years later now it certainly is the case that you can upgrade. (And probably already have).
