Hello,
I just tried it again and I received the same error.
I also have an installer issue email I sent the same day. Have you a chance to review that one?
I am sort of at a standstill with moving forward with this project because I cannot get either install to work.

Hi Randy,
I’m just back from vacation. Have you tried replacing the linux style “/” with the Windows style “\” for all of your command-line arguments?
Best Regards, Andrew.

Subject: Windows Cluster 7.2.7 Zip Download configdir issue
Hello,
I downloaded cluster 7.2.7 zip archive.
I am following the quick start guide and I am up to this command:
E:/mysql-cluster-gpl-7.2.7-winx64/cluster/mysql/bin/ndb_mgmd -f E:/mysql-cluster-gpl-7.2.7-winx64/cluster/conf/config.ini –-initial –-configdir=E:/mysql-cluster-gpl-7.2.7-winx64/cluster/conf
When I run that command I am receiving this error:

Here is the text in case the image does not come through:

Am I doing something wrong?
