I have a Kafka cluster running on the local machine with default settings outside of my minikube setup. I have created a producer in one of my web services and deployed it on minikube.

For producer to connect to Kafka I am using 10.0.2.2 IP which I am also using to connect Cassandra and DGraph outside of minikube for these it is working fine.

However Kafka producer is not working and not even throwing an error saying Broker may not be available or any other errors while sending data. But I am not receiving anything on the consumer side.

When I run this web service outside the Kubernetes everything works.

Please if you guys have any idea what might be wrong here.

Below is the Kubernetes yaml file that I am using.
