The error is because the deploy-manager-config.xml is noy found in the classpath . please put the folder where deploy-manager-config.xml is placed in classpath .

It would be helpful , if you use it using ant scripts.

please have look at this pdf where it shows an example on how to deploy .also it very easy to do....
