[11:02:53] - SEVERE - Cannot run program "mapnik/Nik2Img.exe" (in directory "mapnik"): java.io.IOException: error=2, No such file or directory

Currently the Mapnik functionality only works on Windows due to a dependency on Nik2Img.exe, a win32 binary. A possible fix would be to access Mapnik via JNI, and include Windows, Mac OSX, and Linux binaries. Here is a binding which may work: https://github.com/SpatialInteractive/mapnik-jni.
