Hi, Today was the day. We copied all the files (install folder and project folder) und set the variables. Unfortunately it's not working.
We did the following: We copied apache-forrest and workflow-dok (that's our project) to C:\forrest\. We set the Variables to: FORREST_HOME = C:\forrest\apache-forrest\ Path = ...;%FORREST_HOME%\bin We did a restart and the variables are set properly. If we enter 'forrest run' it says that it does not recognize forrest as a command. We've also tried to run the forrest.bat directly with 'forrest.bat run'. It starts running but the build fails with an error that it can't find a documentation folder in C:\forrest\apache-forrest\. That's weird because our project-folder is C:\forrest\workflow-dok anyway. What are we doing wrong ?! PS: I can't take a look at the configuration of our old server since it is not located in the same building (or country) and i have no remote-acced. Thanks in advance Kind regards . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

As such, it would then be system wide. Most of this is RTFM at http://forrest.apache.org/docs_0_90/your-project.html#Setting+up+the+Environment. Best of luck and enjoy Forrest!
