["Jyotinder Singh (Jira)" <ji...@apache.org>]

Jyotinder Singh commented on KAFKA-6500:
----------------------------------------

I'm pretty late to this thread, but I was facing the same issue while trying to follow the instructions in the git repo. Turns out it was solved by switching the Java version to Java 1.8 from Java 11.
