beginner problem installing forrest on windows

[THOMAS BENOIT <th...@iecs.edu>]

Hello,

I am trying to install forrest on windows but I am stuck.
I put the binary version in C:\forrest, I unziped fresh-site.zip in this
folder. I run Apache 2.0 on Windows. I added the environment variables
for Forrest and J2DK, correctly, I think.

I got the following error when typing "forrest" in the comand window.
(although I am not sure what this command is for)
----------------------------------
Apache Forrest. Run 'forrest _projecthelp' to list options

Buildfile: C:\forrest\forrest.build.xml

BUILD FAILED
Basedir C:\forrst\ant\lib\" -Dproject.home C:" does not exist

Total time: 0 seconds
------------------------------------


If I type : C:\forrest -projecthelp
I got :
-------------------------------------
Apache Forrest. Run 'forrest _projecthelp' to list options

Buildfile: C:\forrest\forrest.build.xml
-------------------------------------
(that's all)


If someone Can help the beginner who I am, on these obvious basic steps
it would be very appreciated.

Thanks

Thomas

Hi,

did you seed the project ?
type 'forrest seed'

This is required to start a new forrest.
You will then build the project by just typing
'forrest'

Hope it helped...
