Connect to Kafka inside VirtualBox

Question

I'm having problems connecting my host (Windows) to the guest (Linux) where I installed Kafka.

I created a virtual machine (with VirtualBox) where I installed the Confluent tools. In this virtual machine, I run the command:

confluent start schema-registry

It launches zookeeper, kafka and registry schema.

In this virtual machine, I can run

kafka-console-producer --broker-list localhost:9092 --topic test

and

kafka-console-consumer --bootstrap-server localhost:9092 --topic test

and everything works fine, I can create and receive messages.

My goal, however, is to be able to produce and consume messages from my host, so I configure this port forwarding rule:

From my Windows, I expected this command to work:

bin\windows\kafka-console-producer.bat --broker-list 127.0.0.1:9092 --topic test

But all I get is:

ERROR Error when sending message to topic test with key: null, value: 3 bytes with error: (org.apache.kafka.clients.producer.internals.ErrorLoggingCallback)
org.apache.kafka.common.errors.TimeoutException: Expiring 1 record(s) for test-0: 1529 ms has passed since batch creation plus linger time 

I tried a lot of different things, but still can not find a solution .... Any ideas?
