    Description

      I have java.lang.NullPointerException for paused connector after the restart of Kafka Connect application:

      [2017-12-19T08:41:38,237][ERROR][category=org.apache.kafka.connect.runtime.WorkerTask] Task is being killed and will not recover until manually restarted
      [2017-12-19T08:41:38,699][ERROR][category=org.apache.kafka.connect.runtime.WorkerSourceTask] Exception thrown while calling task.commit()

      Root cause:
      WorkerTask instantiates the task, but it doesn’t start the task if the task has PAUSED state:

      org.apache.kafka.connect.runtime.WorkerTask.java
      private void doRun() throws InterruptedException {
          try {
              synchronized (this) {
                  if (stopping)
                      return;
      
                  if (targetState == TargetState.PAUSED) {
                      onPause();
                      if (!awaitUnpause()) return;
                  }
      
                  statusListener.onStartup(id);
              }
      
              execute(); // here is performed the task starting
          } catch (Throwable t) {
              log.error("Task {} threw an uncaught and unrecoverable exception", id, t);
              log.error("Task is being killed and will not recover until manually restarted");
              throw t;
          } finally {
              doClose();
          }
      }
      

      So PostgresConnectorTask doesn’t initialize producer variable and commit() method invocation can throw java.lang.NullPointerException:

      io.debezium.connector.postgresql.PostgresConnectorTask.java
      @Override
      public void commit() throws InterruptedException {
         producer.commit();
      }
