-----------------------------------------------------------------

I am experiencing the same / a similar problem with a co-worker of mine. Forrest is working fine for me, but
not for him. There are a couple of variables between our setups:

* he is on Windows (Win7), I am on Mac (Snow Leopard/10.6)
* he uses Forrest 9, I am using svn r1070042
* the problem site uses dispatcher
* the problem site has a tailored xdocs dir
* his forrest works fine with another site using the traditional skins (pelt in this case)

The error message he gets
is:

D:\forrest\main\webapp\D:\giellatekno\ped\build\tmp\d:\forrest\build\plugins\dataModel.xmap
(The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect)

It seems that forrest incorrectly are concatenating three different paths:
1) the main/webapp dir of $FORREST_HOME
2) the project's build/tmp dir
3) the build/plugins dir of the running forrest in $FORREST_HOME

We are trying to update forrest to the latest svn, and will see if that helps. I'll report the (lack of)
progress here.

No it is not. But the issue has been resolved. The solution was to update to the latest svn trunk. But we need to
remember that we have an issue with Forrest 0.9 on Windows and dispatcher, at least in some cases (too many
variables in what we saw to pinpoint the exact cause of the bug).

I'll update Jira as well.
