[Anthill] Anthill on z/OS USS

Hi William,

I don't have any z/OS experience, but I might be able to point you in 
the direction of the next place to look. The log suggests that the 
anthill properties are being loaded and read successfully. I believe 
anthill is failing when it tries to read the files in the conf 
directory. If you think you need to adjust the encoding on files, I'd 
suggest doing those.

Regards,

Eric
