Hi evrery one, i'm facing an issue while using kafka as my logstash input. when i started logstash i have this error : `Unable to poll Kafka consumer {:kafka_error_message=>org.apache.kafka.common.KafkaException: Received exception when fetching the next record from type_topics-1. If needed, please seek past the record to continue consumption.` My logstash conf is ok. No error when checking messages with kafka-console-consumer tool. Any help will be appreciate 🙂 Thanx ---
