Hello,

I’ve been trying most of the afternoon to get Kafka installed and running the 
basic quick start.

I am running into the following errors related to firing up zookeeper.  From 
the kafka directory:

Andreas-iMac:kafka_2.11-1.0.0 Andrea$ bin/zookeeper-server-start.sh 
config/zookeeper.properties
usage: dirname path
Classpath is empty. Please build the project first e.g. by running './gradlew 
jar -Pscala_version=2.11.11’

Then I went ahead and moved into the gradle directory, created the gradle 
wrapper and then executed the suggested build command show below.  I’m stuck on 
the absence of the “jar” not being in the root project.

Could you suggest a next step?  Thanks - Karl

Andreas-iMac:4.4 Andrea$ ./gradlew jar -Pscala_version=2.11.11

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

* What went wrong:
Task 'jar' not found in root project '4.4'.

* Try:
Run gradlew tasks to get a list of available tasks. Run with --stacktrace 
option to get the stack trace. Run with --info or --debug option to get more 
log output. Run with --scan to get full insights.
