Hi All,

I am working on Apache Kafka for the last 1 year but recently I am facing a problem in the Splunk connector with the following errors. Also, Splunk is not getting any events and after some time connector crashes automatically.

[2022-10-20 14:28:51,863] WARN [kafka-splunk|task-0] attempting to resend batch d0ec-5417-4ca-885-fd7c525d5ace with 500 events, this is attempt 320 out of -1 for this batch (com.splunk.kafka.connect.SplunkSinkTask:139)

Please anyone help me with this issue to get fixed.

Hi @ShardulDabgarPMC

Can you please provide the task configuration you used for collecting data in Splunk and how frequently you are facing this issue?
