I am having the following issue:
I set up an as basic as possible confluent platform on aws using only 1 worker and broker node.
When i try to produce messages towards my kafka topic from outside my vpc, i am getting the following error message:
ERROR Error when sending message to topic test1 with key: null, value: 13 bytes with error: (org.apache.kafka.clients.producer.internals.ErrorLoggingCallback) org.apache.kafka.common.errors.TimeoutException: Failed to update metadata after 60000 ms.
when i do this from within the vpc network, it simply works.
I made sure my vpc allows all traffic and i am aware of using the public dns addresses of my ec2 nodes.
i also had a look at this one Why I cannot connect to Kafka from outside?
I implemented the changes, but i did not solve my issue.
I am very nocive with everything that has to do with connections and networks, so I hope someone can help me out
