"The directory name is invalid" on Windows slaves

XMLWordPrintable

      Old description:

      pre-scm-buildstep assumes that the directory workspace exists when it's running. However, when setting up a project, it does not exist, and thus this step will fail unless the admin creates manually. Proper behaviour should be to check if it exists, and create it if it doesn't. Otherwise, if it does not exist, the execute shell will fail

      The issue also applies to system calls invoked from other places
