Kafka topic creation: Timed out waiting for a node assignment


If you're running Kafka in Docker (or similar) you need to configure the listeners correctly. This article describes it in detail.

Here's an example of a Docker Compose that you can use to access Kafka from your host machine.

Disclaimer: I wrote the article :)


As @suh pointed out.

An easier approach is uncomment kafka server.properties at line :listeners=PLAINTEXT://localhost:9092 and it should work.


I think the localhost is the problem. In your bootstrap-servers properties use the advertised host (192.168.99.100) that you've defined in your compose file, instead of localhost, that should work.
