That still fails on the real path I have to use in the project.  Are
there any known issues with  hidden shares (name ending in $), or with
paths containing spaces?

The path that fails contains both :(

That's what I was testing and wrote about in another response on this thread:

- It's not possible to set only ExternalData_OBJECT_STORES, one has to
set ExternalData_URL_TEMPLATES too.
- I'd like to not have to map the drive (other users of the project
would then have to free up a specific drive letter) and
ExternalData_OBJECT_STORES don't seem to handle paths of the form
"//share.host/foo/bar".
