Description
I'm trying to run kapacitor on widows like this:
C:\kapacitor-1.5.1-1>C:\kapacitor-1.5.1-1\kapacitord.exe -config C:\kapacitor-1.
5.1-1\kapacitor.conf
I get an error:
2018/08/19 13:51:56 Using configuration at: C:\kapacitor-1.5.1-1\kapacitor.conf
run: create server: invalid configuration: dir must be an absolute path. To gene
rate a valid configuration file run `kapacitord config > kapacitor.generated.con
f`.
I've tried all kind of option with "" under different path etc.
This kinda blocks me from running Kapcitor with an influx node that has authentication enabled.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the Windows command with kapacitord.exe and the supplied kapacitor.conf, then inspect the config command and the validation that reports “dir must be an absolute path.” Done means Kapacitor starts successfully on Windows with a configuration file path and authenticated InfluxDB setup.
