[DOC RHEL] Error starting Zookeeper with EXTRA_ARGS environment variable

      I have done the following workaround that works to me (don't know if there are undisclosed consequences, but it seems that everything is working fine):

      1. Edit the file "zookeeper-server-start.sh"
      2. Found the following line:
      EXTRA_ARGS="-daemon "$EXTRA_ARGS
      1. Change it using this one: 
        EXTRA_ARGS="-daemon -name zookeeper -loggc "$EXTRA_ARGS

      With a valid and running Zookeeper/Kafka installation on RHEL, and neither security nor authorization configured:

      1. Stop Zookeeper server
      2. Export the followin environtment variable: 
        export EXTRA_ARGS="-Djava.security.auth.login.config=/opt/kafka/config/zookeeper-jaas.conf"
      1. Start Zookeeper server with the command: 
        /opt/kafka/bin/zookeeper-server-start.sh -daemon /opt/kafka/config/zookeeper.properties
      2. Zookeeper boot fails and the following message appears: 
        /opt/kafka/bin/kafka-run-class.sh: line 297: : No such file or directory

      Following the official documentation link to enable Zookeeper authentication, when starting Zookeeper it will fail showing the error:

      /opt/kafka/bin/kafka-run-class.sh: line 297: : No such file or directory

      The referenced line in the script is in the 'nohup' execution:

      # Launch mode
if [ "x$DAEMON_MODE" = "xtrue" ]; then
  nohup $JAVA $KAFKA_HEAP_OPTS $KAFKA_JVM_PERFORMANCE_OPTS $KAFKA_GC_LOG_OPTS $KAFKA_JMX_OPTS $KAFKA_LOG4J_OPTS -cp $CLASSPATH $KAFKA_OPTS "$@" > "$CONSOLE_OUTPUT_FILE" 2>&1 < /dev/null &
else
  exec $JAVA $KAFKA_HEAP_OPTS $KAFKA_JVM_PERFORMANCE_OPTS $KAFKA_GC_LOG_OPTS $KAFKA_JMX_OPTS $KAFKA_LOG4J_OPTS -cp $CLASSPATH $KAFKA_OPTS "$@"
fi

      I have checked that when you are starting Zookeeper in daemon mode, and the environment variable EXTRA_ARGS is set, the value for $CONSOLE_OUTPUT_FILE is empty, and then, redirect the output to 'nothing' fails.
