Well, this can't be it, can it?! Since you said you are using Windows cmd as the shell, the answer to spaces in paths is quoting, right?! Which is the general answer to all spaces in paths within cmd, whether they are in executable programs or command line parameters. So the hint can't be: Don't put spaces in your path to qooxdoo. - The hint must be: Respect the path handling constraints of your shell.
