Rishi,

I tried to get filemgr started on a windows machine about 2 years ago and I
ran into a lot of issues.  It is definitely made for a *nix type OS.  If you
do figure out the main sticking points I hope we can get some docs or issues
setup to guide other Win users.

OODT-187: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OODT-187   Deals with the
file pathing within the properties file.  This could be an issue that might
solve the problem.  I would hope that file:/// would be supported by Win and
*nix systems, but I haven't done the research to confirm.

Good luck,


Cameron
