Windows 10 Long Pathing Issue

See original GitHub issue

We are running pact-node 6.19.6 karma-pact 2.1.5 and pact-web 5.9.1

Is there a max path length requirement? I seem to be having issues with running pact tests with directories that are long. After I change the length of the directory names, pact-node starts up successfully.

After running on windows machine with long path names:

    consumer = ux,
    provider = core,
    logLevel = debug,
    dir = C:\Users\aserie\source\repos\my-long-repo-name\long-workspace-name\apps\app1\pacts,
    log = C:\Users\aserie\source\repos\my-long-repo-name\long-workspace-name\apps\app1\logs\pact.log,
    port = 1234,
    host = localhost,
    pactFileWriteMode = overwrite,
    ssl = false,
    cors = false

I’ve added a warning in Pact on initialization to let the user know if they have windows long path enable or not, version 6.19.7. It will warn the user about the issue and how to solve it by pointing them to a registry fix .

This is really the best I can do, the rest is on Windows to fix.
