Joe Stein commented on KAFKA-1081: ---------------------------------- We have binary release http://kafka.apache.org/downloads.html since 0.8.0-beta1 and moving forward, you could use that since it is already packaged. I would go so far as to even bootstrap the sbt launcher but that is a lot more changes than just a consistent error when not compiling source before run. > kafka-run-class.sh is broken > ---------------------------- > > Key: KAFKA-1081 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-1081 > Project: Kafka > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: 0.8 > Reporter: Francois Saint-Jacques > > Please apply this patch, this is why log4j exists.
