Thanks Paul,
I can put here the chcanges I made.
1) because I thought the system try to search for the directory for the
skin is then I have copied the skins directory into
my-current-proj-dir\documentation ;
2) then I have made the following changes in the propierty file:
project.skin=tigris
....
....
project.content-dir=src/documentation
project.skins-dir=${project.content-dir}/skins
project.skinconf=${project.content-dir}/skinconf.xml
That's it.
Regards.
Dan
P.S. I have tried also with others skins but always I have the same error.
