I'm not sure of details for running vls on
Windows, but basically vls.cfg tells vls
where to look for the configuration for
that input, and you probably have:

BEGIN "local1"
#ConfigPath    = "/path"   # where to find the "path/input.cfg"
ConfigPath    = "C:\vls"
END

and vls is adding on "/input.cfg", which is fine for Unix, not
for Windows.  If you leave out ConfigPath completely
it might find the file itself.

If you compiled this yourself, the value is in
src/modules/localinput/localinput.cpp, where
you can change the 2

     + "/input.cfg

to

     + "\input.cfg

though, again, I don't know the rest of the details
on vls pathhandlingin Windows.
