[Buildbot-devel] Alternate shell on win32

[Tim Flink]

Sorry for the delayed response. I was on vacation last week and didn't 
have access to email.

Do you have a 'build' directory within the builder's directory on the 
buildslave? (using the config you sent earlier, that would be 
longo\build on your buildslave).

When I tried doing this before, I was just replacing the buildsteps for 
an existing builder but when I tried your configuration I ended up 
creating a new builder and was getting the same shell exception error 
you had posted earlier. Once I created a 'build' directory, the error 
went away and the 'echo Hello' command worked as expected.

I hope this helps,

Tim
