Dieter De Paepe created KAFKA-7998: -------------------------------------- Summary: Windows Quickstart script fails Key: KAFKA-7998 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-7998 Project: Kafka Issue Type: Bug Affects Versions: 2.1.0 Reporter: Dieter De Paepe
Following the [Quickstart |http://kafka.apache.org/quickstart]guide on windows, I received an error in the script to start Zookeeper: {noformat} The input line is too long. The syntax of the command is incorrect.{noformat} The cause is in the long CLASSPATH being constructed, resulting in a very long string: {noformat} for %%i in ("%BASE_DIR%\libs\*") do ( call :concat "%%i" ) ... :concat IF not defined CLASSPATH ( set CLASSPATH="%~1" ) ELSE ( set CLASSPATH=%CLASSPATH%;"%~1" ){noformat} A simple fix is to change the "kafka-run-class.bat" as follows (for all similar loops): {noformat}for %%i in ("%BASE_DIR%\libs\*") do ( call :concat "%%i" ){noformat} should become {noformat}call :concat "%BASE_DIR%\libs\*"{noformat} -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
