Hi SinaiNday, could you please provide the command that you use to start Lenses Box? Is the Lenses Box container also running in the host network?

Hi SinaiNday, could you please provide the command that you use to start Lenses Box? Is the Lenses Box container also running in the host network?

docker run -e ADV_HOST=127.0.0.1 -e EULA="https://dl.lenses.io/d/?id=MY_PRIVATE_ID_SENT_BY_EMAIL" --rm -p 3030:3030 -p 9092:9092 lensesio/box

Since the ports 3030 and 9092 are running after launching lenses box, I ran this command docker run --rm -it -p 8081:8081 -p 8082:8082 -p 8083:8083 -p 9581:9581 -p 9582:9582 -p 9583:9583 -p 9584:9584 -e ADV_HOST=127.0.0.1 landoop/fast-data-dev:latest

and then this error popped up

root@fast-data-dev / $ kafka-topics --create --zookeeper localhost:2181 --replication-factor 1 --partitions 3 --topic my-topic
Error while executing topic command : Replication factor: 1 larger than available brokers: 0.
[2020-03-20 04:13:17,925] ERROR org.apache.kafka.common.errors.InvalidReplicationFactorException: Replication factor: 1 larger than available brokers: 0.
 (kafka.admin.TopicCommand$)

I have a single broker running right now in the admin panel

@ulfox I just solved it 1.Run this command in the terminal sudo docker run -e ADV_HOST=127.0.0.1 -e EULA="https://dl.lenses.io/d/?id=ID_GOT_FROM_EMAIL" --rm -p 3030:3030 -p 9092:9092 --name=sinai lensesio/box 2. follow by this sudo docker exec -it sinai bash 3. Try this command to see all the topics kafka-topics --zookeeper localhost:2181 --list
