title: Unable to start kairosdb on windows 7
body: <p>I am new to Cassandra and Kairos. I am unable to start kairosdb on my windows system. 
      Steps I followed:
      I installed Cassandra and from cqlsh window I added a keyspace kairosdb (source: <a href="http://prasannasjain.blogspot.in/2014/05/time-series-database-kairos-db-with.html" rel="nofollow">http://prasannasjain.blogspot.in/2014/05/time-series-database-kairos-db-with.html</a>)
      Then I installed kairosdb from <a href="https://github.com/kairosdb/kairosdb/releases" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/kairosdb/kairosdb/releases</a> and pointed the database to Cassandra in kairosdb.properties file</p>
  
  <pre><code>Issue:
  I tried starting kairosdb using commands "kairosdb.sh start" from command line and "./kairosdb.sh start" from Git Bash. The error I am getting is 
  ./kairosdb.sh: line 49: /var/run/kairosdb.pid: No such file or directory
  
  Please suggest what is wrong here
