java.io.FileNotFoundException: /kafka-rest.log (Permission denied)

Hi Friends,

I am facing the error "java.io.FileNotFoundException: /kafka-rest.log 
(Permission denied)" when i start kafka-rest with " bin]$ 
./kafka-rest-start ../etc/kafka-rest/kafka-rest.properties"

if I give absolute path for the parameter "log4j.appender.file.File" in 
log4j.properties file its working, how to set the value for the 
${kafka-rest.log.dir}/ in bashrc? if i give kafka-rest.log.dir=<path> in 
bashrc its not picking up from here.

Thanks for advance.

Regards,

Kishore.
