I'm new in HBase and I am trying to install and configure it in Windows following the instructions mentioned on the Hbase site:
http://hbase.apache.org/cygwin.html
However I've tried several times to follow all the instructions but never succeed when I run the command: ./bin/start-hbase.sh
The last error that appeared me was:
Pedro@pedrocunha /usr/local/hbase-1.0.1
$ ./bin/start-hbase.sh
cygpath: can't convert empty path
Error: Could not find or load main class org.apache.hadoop.hbase.util.HBaseConfTool
cygpath: can't convert empty path
Error: Could not find or load main class org.apache.hadoop.hbase.zookeeper.ZKServerTool

cat: C:\cygwin\root\usr\local\hbase-1.0.0/conf/regionservers: No such file or directory
The version of Hbase I am using is 1.0.1. Does anyone know if these instructions are correct? I have to change so that everything works correctly?
Set the HBASE_HOME property correctly to the HBASE installation directory and check
set HBASE_HOME=/PATH/TO/HBASE
