------------------------------------
Hi Seb,
I tried the patch over a windows machine with cygwin and it worked (I have not
ran all possible scenarios exhaustively...just tried few).
One minor suggestion:
With the current patch, I see this
{noformat}cygpath: can't convert empty path{noformat}
I figured out the responsible place (line 115) in the nutch script:
{noformat}NUTCH_JOB=`cygpath -p -w "$NUTCH_JOB"`{noformat}
As the NUTCH_JOB value is empty while running in local mode, it gave that error
message. The if case for adjusting NUTCH_JOB at lines 113-116 in [nutch
script|http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/nutch/trunk/src/bin/nutch?view=markup]
could be moved in the block just above it to address that. What say ?
> bin/nutch to allow whitespace in paths
