Hi Alexander,

Not sure how to respond to your query without walking through the code with
you step by step.  Have you tried the code in the "final" folder,
containing the solution to the entire lab?  You'll need to "mvn clean
install" the utilities.releng, then the perspectives.releng, and finally
the bootstrapper.

It's entirely possible that the code is out of date, but my hope is that it
steers you in the right direction.

If the final lab solution doesn't work for you, feel free to reach out
again.



Regards,

Dave Orme
