by adding this catch error on this.consumerGroup.joinAndSync() in consumer/runner.js
https://github.com/tulios/kafkajs/blob/ff3b1117f316d527ae170b550bc0f772614338e9/src/consumer/runner.js#L127C49-L127C49
the following error get caught
2022-06-10T18:38:26.771Z error: uncaughtException: The coordinator is loading and hence can't process requests for this group
KafkaJSProtocolError: The coordinator is loading and hence can't process requests for this group at createErrorFromCode (/test/node_modules/kafkajs/src/protocol/error.js:581:10) at Object.parse (/test/node_modules/kafkajs/src/protocol/requests/joinGroup/v5/response.js:35:11) at Connection.send (/test/node_modules/kafkajs/src/network/connection.js:433:35) at runMicrotasks (<anonymous>) at processTicksAndRejections (node:internal/process/task_queues:96:5) at async Broker.[private:Broker:sendRequest] (/test/node_modules/kafkajs/src/broker/index.js:875:14) at async Broker.joinGroup (/test/node_modules/kafkajs/src/broker/index.js:395:14) at async ConsumerGroup.[private:ConsumerGroup:join] (/test/node_modules/kafkajs/src/consumer/consumerGroup.js:169:23) at async /test/node_modules/kafkajs/src/consumer/consumerGroup.js:335:9 at async Runner.scheduleFetchManager (/test/node_modules/kafkajs/src/consumer/runner.js:112:11)
since this code number 14 is retriable as show in below object in error.js
{
type: 'GROUP_LOAD_IN_PROGRESS',
code: 14,
retriable: true,
message: "The coordinator is loading and hence can't process requests for this group",
}
the onCrash fucntion in consumer/index.js will try to restart and it is getting handled further instead of throwing uncaught error

since this code number 14 is retriable as show in below object in error.jsthe onCrash fucntion in consumer/index.js will try to restart and it is getting handled further instead of throwing uncaught error
this will solve #1394
