Hi XuYi,
At least I think there is something wrong in the start-cli.sh, please read
the following code snippet in start-cli.sh:
```
CLASSPATH=""
for f in ${IOTDB_HOME}/lib/*.jar; do
CLASSPATH=${CLASSPATH}":"$f
done
```
If I am a user and I just run the cli on my laptop to connect an IoTDB
Server, I think I do not need to install IoTDB module, so there is no jars
in `${IOTDB_HOME}/lib`.
Best,
