Description

Windows has a maximum path length of 260 characters. KMS includes several long class file names. During packaging and creation of the distro, these paths get even longer because of prepending the standard war directory structure and our share/hadoop/etc. structure. The end result is that the final paths are longer than 260 characters, making it impossible to deploy a distro on Windows.
