Description

When running console producer with just "localhost" as the broker list, I get ArrayIndexOutOfBounds exception.

I expect either a clearer error about arguments or for the producer to "guess" a default port.

[root@shapira-1 bin]# ./kafka-console-producer.sh --topic rufus1 --broker-list localhost
java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException: 1
