PubSub Kafka Connect node connection end of file exception

While running PubSub Kafka connect using the command:

.\bin\windows\connect-standalone.bat .\etc\kafka\WorkerConfig.properties
 .\etc\kafka\configSink.properties .\etc\kafka\configSource.properties

I get this error:

I am running a local kafka broker and local zookeeper. Any help on how to fix this issue would be great!

Property files here

So, after trying various fixes, I found out that I was using the wrong port number for localhost. The port 2181 was being used by Zookeeper while port 9092 was being used by Kafka Server. So, my original property in WorkerConfig.properties was:

bootstrap.servers=localhost:2181

When it should be

bootstrap.server=localhost:9092

So, moral of the story is to make sure you are using the correct host and port number of your Kafka servers in your connector properties file, mine being WorkerConfig. This is shown here. This may seem like common sense, but I changed the port number while trying to fix other errors, but unknowingly added another error. So, if you recieve the above error, check your bootstrap.server property.
