问题
I have installed Kafka as well zookeeper. Zookeeper is working fine. However, when I try to run Kafka server, I get the below error. Please help me with a solution for this problem. Thank you in advance!!!
Command run from C:\kafka-0.9.0.1 :
.\bin\windows\kafka-server-start.bat .\config\server.properties
Error message:
Classpath is empty. Please build the project first e.g. by running 'gradlew jarAll'
回答1:
When you installed Kafka, did you download from a source download or a binary download? This problem occurs when you download a source distribution.
To fix this, download via the binary download link:
Kafka 0.11.0.0 Binary
Also, the bat files for windows seem to have some problems, so I suggest following the guide here:

Using the bat files from the Github repository linked in the guide.
