启动comsumer的时候报上面的错误,从上面错误我们可以看出客户端已经成功连接到kafka,但是后来有断开了,没有说明断开的原因.
###解决办法 其实我们可以用kakfa自带的测试脚本kafka-console-consumer.sh,这个脚本报错比较明显

[jinsx@byd0030 bin]$ ./kafka-console-consumer.sh  --consumer.config ../config/consumer.properties --zookeeper 127.0.0.1:1081 --topic bitmap_topic 
[2015-10-21 11:12:33,186] ERROR Error processing message, stopping consumer:  (kafka.tools.ConsoleConsumer$)
kafka.common.MessageSizeTooLargeException: Found a message larger than the maximum fetch size of this consumer on topic bitmap_topic partition 2 at fetch offset 0. Increase the fetch size, or decrease the maximum message size the broker will allow.

	at kafka.tools.ConsoleConsumer$.main(ConsoleConsumer.scala:166)
	at kafka.tools.ConsoleConsumer.main(ConsoleConsumer.scala)

这里给我报的错误是消息体过大,叫我增大fetch size,就是是consumer配置里面的"fetch.message.max.bytes",或者减小broker配置文件里面的maximum message size,也就是server.properties中的"message.max.bytes"配置项.

###结论 出现这种错误一般是配置文件的问题,在Kafka官方配置文档里面列举了各个配置项,好好对照broker,consumer,producer各个配置项,再结合kafka-console-consumer.sh,kafka-console-producer.sh等脚本可以轻松查出错误.
