Zookeeper issue in setting kafka

Question

To install kafka , I downloaded the kafka tar folder. To start the server I tried this command :

bin/zookeeper-server-start.sh config/zookeeper.properties
<         


        

Answer 1

You can use Powershell as an alternative to CMD.

Consider myKafka is your kafka home directory, Extract your kafka tar file here. Extracted folder(KafkaDir) will be having ./bin,/config, etc. internal folders.

1. Now, open Powershell prompt, go to myKafka folder.
2. Run below command:

.\kafkaDir\bin\windows\zookeeper-server-start.bat
.\kafkaDir\config\zookeeper.properties

Zookeeper will get start.
