>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-3743
>             Project: Kafka
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: tools
>    Affects Versions: 0.10.0.0
>            Reporter: Magnus Edenhill
>            Priority: Minor

> When trying to start Kafka from an uncompiled source tarball rather than the binary the kafka-server-start.sh command gives a mystical error message:
> ```
> $ bin/kafka-server-start.sh config/server.properties 
> Error: Could not find or load main class config.server.properties
> ```
> This could probably be improved to say something closer to the truth.
> This is on 0.10.0.0-rc6 tarball from github.
