td-agent fluentd fails to send messages to Kafka

I had a td-agent sending messages to a Kafka queue with no problem. But now I get the following error. I restarted the agent with no luck. I flushed the buffer manually with no luck.

Any advice on what is happeing is welcome

There is connectivity with Kafka cluster from the server:

user@server:~$ telnet digital.servicebus.windows.net 9093 Trying 13.69.64.0... Connected to digital-dev-01.servicebus.windows.net. Escape character is '^]'.

Thank you in advance

We experience exactly the same issue. Running fluentd with Kafka output in Kubernetes cluster in Azure North Europe.

Around 1PM March 19th it just stopped working from multiple clusters.

Edit: We found a solution on our end. Basically make sure that you have a later version of ruby-kafka and/or fluent-kafka-plugin

We achieved that by having this in our Kubernetes manifest.

containers: - name: fluentd image: fluent/fluentd-kubernetes-daemonset:v1.3.3-debian-kafka-1.2 command: ["/bin/sh"] args: ["-c", "cp /fluent-config/*.conf /fluentd/etc/ && gem install fluent-plugin-detect-exceptions && gem install fluent-plugin-prometheus && gem update fluent-plugin-kafka &&/fluentd/entrypoint.sh"]
