Install mongo-connector on windows

I installed python, pymongo via easy_install script and tired the command easy_install mongo-connector. But after installation I could not find mongo_connector.py in the python directory? Was there some issue by installing mongo-connector?

Then I tired python setup.py install for the downloaded mongodb-connector.tar.gz and it installed the package.

PS C:\Python33> python C:\Python33\Lib\site-packages\mongo-connector\mongo_connector.py -m localhost:27017 -t http://loc
alhost:8080/solr
2014-01-23 16:52:55,596 - INFO - Beginning Mongo Connector

_response
    raise OperationFailure(msg % errmsg, code)
pymongo.errors.OperationFailure: command SON([('replSetGetStatus', 1)]) failed: not running with --replSet

But the connector wont work, has anybody experience by using mongo-connector on windows?

You need to be running a replica set instead of a standalone mongod to get mongo-connector to work, as described in the readme: https://github.com/10gen-labs/mongo-connector/blob/master/README.markdown

The reason for this is that mongo connector relies on the systems in place that allow replica sets to copy each other (the Oplog mentioned in the error) in order to copy your data. If you are just trying this out on a single machine, it's still possible to configure a replica set by starting multiple processes on the same machine. See the docs here: http://docs.mongodb.org/manual/tutorial/deploy-replica-set/
