Thanks Olivier - this is a great help,

Team, this is the same problem I'm seeing. I'm 99.9% certain it is
because the dispatcher plugin has not been deployed correctly.
Unfortunately, the 0.1% I left myself was wise, the dispatcher has now
been correctly deployed, but the above error can be reproduced with:

cd apache-forrest-0.8
cd main
build clean
build
build test

All other tests I have performed have passed, but all sites I have with
dispatcher are failing in the above way.

I don't have time to look into this right now - may grab another half
hour later today.

Same with me, dispatcher broken.

I did an 'ant test' on the dispatcher plugin in trunk and the
dispatcher-glossary.xml fails validation due to not well formed markup. Its
been fine
all this time but now fails, don't know when that started to happen.
The dispatcher plugin itself does download and unzip into the build
directory fine in RC1.

I got the same results reported by Gavin, now "ant test" in trunk passes OK for me.

However, RC1 still fails on any dispatcher site.

I've compared all the files in the deployed plugin pulled down by RC1 and the trunk plugin deployed from the local directory. They are the same (expect RC1 has a lib folder in there that isn't present in trunk but it only contains a readme.txt).

Nobody has reported whether this works on Linux or not, we need to know as it may be a line endings issue. I've wasted way too much time on this already.

The same steps produce the same error on Linux. However, it appears the scope is not limited to the dispatcher. Any plugin that provides Java source will fail. Plugins in trunk are built in $FOO_PLUGIN/build, where the compiled code will end up. This is not the case with RC1. With RC1, the plugins end up in $FORREST_HOME/build/plugins in source form. They are never built.
