Hello

 
We want to connect one Kafka machine with Splunk connect for Kafka but it's throwing the below error in file: config/connect-distributed.properties.

 

 

 [Worker clientId=connect-1, groupId=MySuperSystemID_group] Uncaught exception in herder work thread, exiting:  (org.apache.kafka.connect.runtime.distributed.DistributedHerder:324)
org.apache.kafka.connect.errors.ConnectException: Could not look up partition metadata for offset backing store topic in allotted period. This could indicate a connectivity issue, unavailable topic partitions, or if this is your first use of the topic it may have taken too long to create.

The configuration looks like this:
group.id=MySuperSystemID_group

bootstrap.servers=https://x.x.x.x:9093
#key.converter=org.apache.kafka.connect.storage.StringConverter
#value.converter=org.apache.kafka.connect.storage.StringConverter

# SSL Configuration
security.protocol=SSL
ssl.client.auth=required # enable two way SSL
ssl.endpoint.identification.algorithm =
ssl.key.password=password
ssl.keystore.location=/root/files/keystore.jks
ssl.keystore.password=password
ssl.keystore.type = JKS
ssl.truststore.location=/root/files/truststore.jks
ssl.truststore.password=password
ssl.enabled.protocols=TLSv1.2,TLSv1.1
ssl.truststore.type=JKS
 
Can someone please guide me over here?
