I deleted the HelloWorld application folder, ran create-application, ran 
generate.py for the new HellowWorld application and ran it in the browser. The 
console shows a bunch of things that all look like this:

        Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 404 (Not 
Found)
        
http://cuningham.kravis.org/users/cuningham/documents/localhost/qooxdoo/qooxdoo-2.0.1-sdk/framework/source/class/qx/Bootstrap.js
        ...

Clearly this is not going to work because 
"C:\Users\cuningham\Documents\localhost" is the root of the webserver.

Once again the path in the config file is 
"../../../../../../users/cuningham/documents/localhost/qooxdoo/qooxdoo-2.0.1-sdk".

Which problem was that? Was it path-related?

What was the issue? Which exact error would you get in the browser console? Did 
you check that all source file were loaded?

I'd like to know myself. But the main point to take away here is that this path 
*is correct* (although it could be simplified). We had reports about that 
before, but I was never able to reproduce it with our Windows boxes.
There must be something triggering this behavior which I haven't been able to 
reproduce. That being said, I'd say the loading issue is the important problem. 
Whether these two are related I cannot say.

> Why did it not go back to normal after I deleted everything?

Why should it?! I see no reason to assume that this was a singular accident 
that can be overcome by deleting everything and repeating what you did before. 
Repeating doesn't usually fix things.

Editing the path would only be interesting if this fixes your loading problem. 
But I suspect it doesn't. I would be more interested to learn why your app 
doesn't load properly after a successful build.
