I am trying to run kafka server on ubuntu(16) with java openjdk version "9-internal" by following this tutorial and when i run

bin/kafka-server-start.sh config/server.properties

to start Kafka(kafka_2.11-0.9.0.0) server i get following error

Error: Config file not found: /usr/lib/jvm/java-9-openjdk-amd64/conf/management/management.properties

I have checked there is no java-9-openjdk-amd64/conf

Please guide me how to fix it?

Thanks.

I found a management/management.properties file under /usr/lib/jvm/java-9-openjdk-amd64/lib so my solution was to do:

cd /usr/lib/jvm/java-9-openjdk-amd64
sudo ln -s lib conf

which seems to have worked so far, but I'm unsure if there will be future ill effects. It seems to me to be a packaging bug of some sort in the JDK. `

I had the same problem and solved by using java openjdk version "1.8.0_162".
