I’ve had this happen a few times too. Usually restarting or deleting the

/data

directory helps. (Obviously this incur loss of all your messages)

Thank you for your reply. However, restarting is useless. Also, what do you mean by

/data

? Is it an absolute path or a relative path? My Mac does not have this directory.

In the pulsar download directory at the root level (where you also find

/conf

,

/bin

etc) it creates a

/data

directory after the standalone was started

Oh, I see. I'm trying it now.

Happy to help 🙂 As for the reason, I didn’t really look into why it happens

Yes..I can't even reproduce it again.
