That is a very old branch. Here is a more up to date one https://github.com/stealthly/kafka/tree/v0.8.2_KAFKA-1477 (needs to be updated to latest trunk might have a chance to-do that next week).
You should be using gradle now as per the README. /******************************************* Joe Stein Founder, Principal Consultant Big Data Open Source Security LLC http://www.stealth.ly Twitter: @allthingshadoop <http://www.twitter.com/allthingshadoop> ********************************************/ On Wed, Jul 16, 2014 at 3:49 PM, Pramod Deshmukh <dpram...@gmail.com> wrote: > Thanks Joe for this, > > I cloned this branch and tried to run zookeeper but I get > > Error: Could not find or load main class > org.apache.zookeeper.server.quorum.QuorumPeerMain > > > I see scala version is still set to 2.8.0 > > if [ -z "$SCALA_VERSION" ]; then > > SCALA_VERSION=2.8.0 > > fi > > > > Then I installed sbt and scala and followed your instructions for different > scala versions.
