How can I find kafka config file?

Question

I have an error using kafka Error while executing topic command replication factor: 1 larger than available brokers: 0 when I tried to create a topic.

And I found the solution (Error creating Kafka Topics- Replication factor larger than available brokers) by modifying config file

cp config/server.properties config/server-1.properties
cp config/server.properties config/server-2.properties)

But my problem is that I can't find the config file cp: config/server.properties: No such file or directory

Could someone help me how to find it using terminal on Mac?

what files do you have in the config directory? did you delete something? — Nautilus, Feb 28 '16 at 17:13

If you are using the docker image from confluent, e.g. confluentinc/cp-enterprise-kafka, they are located in /etc/kafka.

You can use locate kafka command on MAC to search.

On my Mac the location of all configuration file is.

/usr/local/etc/kafka/

If your are on Ubuntu 20 with Kafka 2.8.1, I found it's in /usr/local/kafka/config.

If you are using Hortonworks (now Cloudera) HDP, it is located in /usr/hdp/2.6.4.0-91/kafka/conf
