Couple of notes on publishing from Windows XP: I tried with one changed document. Build works ok. Deploy does not. To be sure I tried to manually delete /site-author/work. That only worked after manually resetting the system and read-only attributes (with attrib) and even then some files report problems:
> Der Pfad > C:\U_Daten\forrest\head\site-author\work\svn-deploy\forrest-docs\pluginDocs\plugins_0_70\org.apache.forrest.plugin.input.OpenOffice.org\sampl > es\openOfficeEmbeddedImage\zip-openoffice-impress.sxi\file-Pictures\.svn\prop-base\10000000000001A0000001129DD2CF32.png.svn-base > ist zu lang. This is a path too long error! Had quite a problem delete these files since del, rmdir, explorer and others simply refused to. Until I had the idea of moving the whole work-branch to the root directory. After that everything worked ok. Conclusion: we should put a warning about this into the instructions. Not I'm stuck with the problem of interrupted connection-aborts: > C:\forrest\head\site-author>forrest -f publish.xml deploy > -Ddeploy.svn.commit-message="test docs update" > **************************************** > Using Forrest C:\forrest\head > for Project > C:\forrest\head\site-author > **************************************** > > Apache Forrest.
