I haven't had a problem running recently on windows due to the long path
name problem (although I did in the past). However, I tend not to use
very long names anyway.
I know this question is about running and not building ... but I'll take
the opportunity to point out one other new bit of news on the building
front. I was under the impression that we couldn't exceed something in
the realm of 14-15 chars before we started to hit the problem building.
However, that was with the M1 build on 1.1.1 (where attempting to use
a root of c:\geronimo1.1.1 was hitting the problem). With trunk and the
current M2 build I can go longer that that (provided I keep the M2 repo
root location fairly short and w/o spaces). I was just able to
successfully build with a root of 25 chars and do not yet know what the
actual limit is.
