Zookeeper issue in setting kafka

For Windows:

  1. Go to kafka_2.11-2.0.0\bin\windows folder
  2. Then run zookeeper-server-start.bat ../../config/zookeeper.properties

This is basically because of this
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: config/zookeeper.properties file is missing

it would be really useful if you could share what exactly have you done so far. Also check if the same file exists at the said location and you are running the command from the correct location .. it is supposed to be run from your $KAFKA_HOME folder (where you've extracted the tar file)
