Using Kafka java producer send a message: Producer connection to localhost:9092 unsuccessful

I want to send a message to Kafka server. the broker list is not include localhost. But when produce invoke the send method, it's has exception: Producer connection to localhost:9092 unsuccessful

import kafka.javaapi.producer.Producer;
import kafka.producer.KeyedMessage;
import kafka.producer.ProducerConfig;

import java.util.Properties;

// create a producer

Properties props = new Properties();

props.put("metadata.broker.list", "192.168.1.203:9092");
props.put("serializer.class", "kafka.serializer.StringEncoder");
props.put("request.required.acks", "1");

ProducerConfig config = new ProducerConfig(props);

producer = new Producer<String, String>(config);

//sending...
String topic = "data_collect_events";
String message = "_Message_1";
KeyedMessage<String, String> keyedMessage = new KeyedMessage<String, String>(topic, message);
producer.send(keyedMessage);

exception:

I had a similar issue where in the Kafka producer located outside EC2 was not able to resolve internal EC2 IP as expected by a Zookeeper.

I edited the /etc/hosts file to add an entry of: public-ip & internal-ec2-ip for the producer to talk to Kafka broker.

Most likely you're using Kafka 0.7 with config keys for Kafka 0.8, so 

props.put("metadata.broker.list", "192.168.1.203:9092");

is simply ignored and producer defaults to localhost:9092 when no broker specified.
You have to use broker.list rather than meta.broker.list.

In kafka 0.8 the broker list is only used for retrieving metadata. The producer then connects to the broker using the returned metadata info. The hostname in the metadata depends on the OS setting for the host (see https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/FAQ#FAQ-OnEC2%2Cwhycan%27tmyhighlevelconsumersconnecttothebrokers%3F ).

You can set host.name in server.properties. like this

host.name=192.168.1.203
