Zookeper is up and running in windows env.Now when i start Kafka server using
.\bin\windows\kafka-server-start.bat .\config\server.properties
nothing is displayed
G:\Apache Kafka\kafka_2.11-0.11.0.0\kafka_2.11-0.11.0.0>.\bin\windows\kafka-serv
er-start.bat .\config\server.properties
G:\Apache Kafka\kafka_2.11-0.11.0.0\kafka_2.11-0.11.0.0>
I am following this article.
The issue resolved after including C:\Windows\System32 in PATH variable.
You have to add the path:
%SystemRoot%\System32\Wbem;%SystemRoot%\System32\;SystemRoot%
in User %PATH% Environment variable, and not in system %PATH% Environment variable.
Deleting the existing Kafka folder and un-tarring the downloaded Kafka{version}.tgz file worked for me.
Caveat: Although this is not an ideal solution but it works for individuals learning/exploring Kafka wanting to just get the things done.
