Issue starting dfs..

[Venkatavaradan Raghunathan <va...@yahoo-inc.com>]

Hi

I am trying to run hadoop on windows (cygwin installation).

When I run command to start the dfs, I am getting the following
exception:
$ bin/start-dfs.sh

localhost: head: Cannot open file

s/hadoop-varadan-datanode-orderfirm-lx.out': No such file or directory

Can anybody help me in this regard?
