[eLearning #JAL-262410]: Cannot run Python-AWIPS on Windows Machine

Hi there,

I believe I just responded to your colleague about the same issue.  You are 
correct, the pwd
package is not supported on Windows.
Simply remove references to pwd in the awips code and it should run.  I can't 
see the path of
where your files live (but it will be printed out in the error you are seeing).

Remove the lines that reference pwd. Remove or comment out the applicable lines 
in the following 
classes:

...\dynamicserialize\dstypes\com\raytheon\uf\common\message\WsId.py
...\dynamicserialize\dstypes\com\raytheon\uf\common\auth\user\UserId.py

Let me know if that makes sense?
Thanks!
