Can't set up the local server correctly (wiki/Adding Support for a New Mod)

[whizzball1]

I can't quite find anywhere to put this, and I've gotten to the point where I can no longer proceed without setting up the local server, so I suppose I'll have to put my help request here--when running the commands you posted, I got up to "grunt clean build" before I got this error:

Running "rsync:static" (rsync) task
rsyncing ./static/ >>> ./dist/
Shell command was: rsync ./static/ ./dist/ --chmod=ugo=rwX --recursive
ERROR
Error: rsync exited with code 1
Warning: Task "rsync:static" failed.

I believe that I have installed rsync correctly, having updated the cmd file in the directory. I even put the folder into the crafting-guide repository, just to make sure. However, no matter what, I get that error. What do I do?

(Also, as an aside, I can't figure out how to "run the ./scripts/convert-nei-dump <path to .../dumps> command", so help for that would be appreciated after this as well.)

What operating system are you running, Windows or something with a UNIX-like command line?

[whizzball1]

I am using Windows. I have already thoroughly scoured Google concerning the error and haven't really gotten anywhere--except that code 1 means invalid syntax.

[whizzball1]

The issue is now resolved. I used a Linux installation I have elsewhere to run the script that I needed--I can't really test my recipes, since almost every single one of them is in a format which doesn't work on the website yet.

On my machine i manually run all the steps AFTER rsync in the main build script because windows did not want to play nice. I run rsync myself and it works, I run the build script and it hangs on that step. =\

@dragagon — Is that the case even when running under Cygwin or something similar? All of these scripts were written in bash, and therefore should work on pretty much any UNIX shell. It may be the case that the rsync you have installed is a Windows version rather than a version specific to your UNIX shell and is expecting \ as a path delimiter rather than /.

It's quite possible, it is the windows executable run in the git bash shell.
