Sure. I pretty much followed this link: https://drill.apache.org/docs/installing-drill-on-windows/
1. I downloaded java jdk: jdk-8u171-windows-x64.exe from http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jdk8-downloads-2133151.html 2. after installed java jdk, I created an environment variable JAVA_HOME and assigned its value as the directory of the jdk (C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_171). 3. I added C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_171 to the PATH environment variable. 4. I downloaded Apache Drill from http://www.apache.org/dyn/closer.lua?filename=drill/drill-1.13.0/apache-drill-1.13.0.tar.gz&action=download 5. then unzipped its content to C drive (C:\) 6. then under bin folder, I issued the command sqlline.bat -u "jdbc:drill:zk=local" That is all and it generated the error message in original email. Thanks.
