Not working. What to do?

• Ensure that Java is installed on the machine. You can set the JAVA_HOME variable inside the config.properties file, but it's not required.
• Ensure that you have no other programs listening on the same ports as the ones you configured in config.properties. On windows, you can view the LISTENING ports using (nestat –a –b or using resmon.exe).
• On linux/OSX make sure that the sh files are marked as executable (find . -iname *.sh | xargs chmod +x )
