Description
When trying to start Kafka from an uncompiled source tarball rather than the binary the kafka-server-start.sh command gives a mystical error message:
```
$ bin/kafka-server-start.sh config/server.properties
Error: Could not find or load main class config.server.properties
```
This could probably be improved to say something closer to the truth.
This is on 0.10.0.0-rc6 tarball from github.
