webgen users - Aug 2008 - Help with Webgen 0.5.1 on Win XP SP2

After upgrading from 4.7 to 0.5.1 I can''t render

D:\webdesign\gotsvenwebgen>webgen render
The system cannot find the path specified.
Starting webgen...
Generating tree...
An error has occurred:   The specified parent path </> does not exist

D:\webdesign\gotsvenwebgen>

Has anyone else experienced this problem?  Or has a solution to
mitigate this?

Thanks,

Sven

Okay, found the bugs and corrected them. The test suite now runs fine
again on windows and creating and rendering websites also works as
expected. I will release a new webgen version with the bug fixes till
Wednesday.

Also be aware that there have been many core changes in webgen 0.5.x,
so you might look at the following:

- adadpt your page/templates files since the format change a little bit
(the options on the --- line are specified in an other way)

- metainfo.yaml in the website directory is not supported anymore, use
metainfo files in your src directory

- virtual files/directories are now handled separately from meta
information files

- configuration file syntax is different as well as the names of the
extensions

- no plugin/ directory anymore but an ext/, extension development
changed very much, see the API docs for more information
