Hi Gyula,

no, I didn't ;) We still deploy 0.10-SNAPSHOT versions from the "release-0.10" branch to Apache's maven snapshot repository.

I don't think Mihail's code will run when he's compiling it against 1.0-SNAPSHOT.

Hi,

I think Robert meant to write setting the connector dependency to 1.0-SNAPSHOT.

Cheers,

Gyula

Hi Mihail,

the issue is actually a bug in Kafka. We have a JIRA in Flink for this as well: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-3067

Sadly, we haven't released a fix for it yet. Flink 0.10.2 will contain a fix.

Since the kafka connector is not contained in the flink binary, you can just set the version in your maven pom file to 0.10-SNAPSHOT. Maven will then download the code planned for the 0.10-SNAPSHOT release.

Hi,

we get the following NullPointerException after ~50 minutes when running a streaming job with windowing and state that reads data from Kafka and writes the result to local FS.

There are around 170 million messages to be processed, Flink 0.10.1 stops at ~8 million.

Flink runs locally, started with the "start-cluster-streaming.sh" script.

Any ideas on what could cause this behaviour?
