Hi all,

after some holyday I'm here again, trying to fix my problems with the
dispatcher plugin. I've started again
from scratch: unset FORREST_HOME, removed my local repository of
forrest, checked it out again,
built forrest, set FORREST_HOME, added FORREST_HOME/bin to PATH and
built a dispatcher sample
site. It failed as usual. Coming back to the dispatcher local-deploy
thing I've repeated it, but the result is
the same i.e. no dispatcher.jar file is created anywhere. Simply
$FORREST_HOME/build/plugins/org.apache.forrest.plugin.internal.dispatcher
contains now a copy of
$FORREST_HOME/whiteboard/plugins/org.apache.forrest.plugin.internal.dispatcher$.
In fact, the following search via find command returns nothing:

$ cd $FORREST_HOME
$ find . -name *.dispatcher.jar
$

Executing $ forrest diagnostics in my seed site directory returns the following:

v...@rachael:~/tmp/test_af1$ forrest diagnostics
Apache Forrest.  Run 'forrest -projecthelp' to list options
