kafka-topics.sh ---delete --topic ''testTopic'' is not working for kafka V 0.10.1
<p>I try to delete a existing topic (I checked using kafka management console) using following command;</p>

<p><strong><em>#./kafka-topics.sh --zookeeper zookeeper.xx.com:2181/chroot --delete --topic testTopic</em></strong></p>

<p>But it says topic not available in zookeeper.[1]</p>

<p>I create those topics at runtime . (I use Highlevel Client APIs.I think it is created in kafka clusters? )</p>

<p>How can I delete the topic using this bash script?</p>

<p>[1]</p>
