Hi@akhtar,

Before starting confluent kafka in your system, you have to set PATH and CONFLUENT_HOME in /etc/profile file.

vim /etc/profile
PATH=CONFLUENT_HOME/bin:PATH
CONFLUENT_HOME={replace home directory path of confluent}

Thank You

/etc/profile is read only, not able to update the file.
Hi,

I think you are trying with different user. Try with root user.
