Vincent,
How did you guess that? <g> Yes, 64-bit Windows 7. I have a Ubuntu virtual
machine as well (I'm using a 16GB workstation, so anything is feasible). I
never finished configuring my Linux VM under VirtualBox, but I _have_ been
giving some serious thought to using it for all XWiki development. Reading
between the lines, do you feel I'd be happier under Linux? Frankly, I've
_never_ liked Windows in any form (in fact, I was sort of an evangelist for
OS/2 back in the day), but there are a few useful Windows tools I use that
may or not be happy under Wine, so I've been taking the path of least
resistance (you know, buying a new portable workstation that always comes
with Windows and Microsoft Office pre-installed :-). It wouldn't take much
to convince me to live in the Linux world.
Since you asked about Windows, and there is a message about a path element,
I'm guessing this whole mess has something to do with the presence of blanks
in Windows pathed directory names like "Program Files."
I don't have a world clock, but isn't it awfully late in Paris? Thanks for
your continued responses!

Hi Gary,
Are you building on Windows by any chance?

The empty "bad path element" of ""

that for the moment. Meanwhile, can anyone explain the problem with
AetherExtensionRepository?
