application.properties missing when using latest kamel-1.0.0 release

[doru1004]

When using the latest kamel 1.0.0 release and trying to run the Kafka sample consumer example I get:

This error does not occur when using kamel RC2 and the sample consumer is deployed successfully.

[lburgazzoli]

Is this happening on a fresh install ?

[doru1004]

I had the RC2 version installed, I uninstalled it then I installed version 1.0.0.

In the source I see that this: /etc/camel/conf/application.properties is hardcoded. What's the underlying assumption? Who is supposed to create that file and is it going be created in that location in all cluster types?

[doru1004]

I tried building from source. I cloned the latest master branch and ran

make

This build a kamel executable which I used to install kamel in my kind cluster.

The command succeeded.

I was also able to deploy the KafkaConsumer in the Kafka example.

It looks like the files missing error might be an error only in the release version and it is no longer a problem in the latest master.
