I have creating a simple Kafka Producer & Consumer.I am using kafka_2.11-0.9.0.0. Here is my Producer code.

public class KafkaProducerTest {
public static String topicName = "test-topic-2";
public static void main(String[] args) {
    // TODO Auto-generated method stub
    Properties props = new Properties();
    props.put("bootstrap.servers", "localhost:9092");
    props.put("acks", "all");
    props.put("retries", 0);
    props.put("batch.size", 16384);
    props.put("linger.ms", 1);
    props.put("buffer.memory", 33554432);
    props.put("key.serializer",
            StringSerializer.class.getName());
    props.put("value.serializer",
            StringSerializer.class.getName());

    Producer<String, String> producer = new KafkaProducer(props);
    for (int i = 0; i < 100; i++) {
        ProducerRecord<String, String> producerRecord = new ProducerRecord<String, String>(
                topicName, Integer.toString(i), Integer.toString(i));
        System.out.println(producerRecord);
        producer.send(producerRecord);
    }

    producer.close();
}

}

I have tried setting the key.serializer and value.serializer like below:

props.put("key.serializer",StringSerializer.class.getName());
props.put("value.serializer",StringSerializer.class.getName());

Also like, But still getting the same error. What is I am doing wrong here.

props.put("key.serializer", "org.apache.kafka.common.serialization.StringSerializer");
props.put("value.serializer", "org.apache.kafka.common.serialization.StringSerializer");

Its issue with the version you are using. It was also suggested to version 0.8.2.2_1. Suggest you to adjust the version of kafka you are using and give a try. code wise, I cross checked many code samples in kafka dev list and seems like you have written in right way.

i.e Thread.currentThread().setContextClassLoader(null);
