Kafka server: Configuration file not found

Question

I am trying to run a kafka server on ubuntu (16) using java openjdk version "9-internal", following this tutorial and when I started

bin/kafka-server-start.sh config/server.properties

to start the Kafka ( kafka_2.11-0.9.0.0) server , I get the following error

Error: configuration file not found: /usr/lib/jvm/java-9-openjdk-amd64/conf/management/management.properties

I checked that no java-9-openjdk-amd64/conf

Please help me how to fix this?

Thank.
