Problem installing Bitnami Spree Stack

I am having a problem installing Bitnami Spree Stack, both the standalone, and the module for Windows. I just downloaded this stack install from Bitnami today (Jan. 21, 2009), so it should be up to date. Near the end of the install, I get the following WARNING windows that pop up. I believe the problem may be related to the mixing of the Windows style back slashes, with the Linux style forward slashed in the same path names (as highlighted in bold in the examples below).

Is there a quick and easy way of fixing this?

Thanks.

Is it possible that you have disabled the 8:3 notation? Try the following in a command prompt:

> fsutil.exe behavior query disable8dot3

If the result is 1 you have disabled the 8:3 notation and you have two options:

1. Install the Stack in a folder without spaces. For example: C:\Spree

or you can enabled the 8:3 notation:

> fsutil.exe behavior set disable8dot3 0

Then restart the system and try to install the Stack again.

I hope it helps.

I am also getting these same errors when I try to install on Windows XP. I checked and get disable8dot3 = 0 so that is not an issue. Any other ideas?

Hi,

We could reproduced on our side. We will release a new Stack as soon as possible.

Thanks for posting the error. We have just updated the Stack and the Module for Windows.
