Running cpack and getting the following error:

λ cpack -v test.nuspec
Chocolatey v0.9.9.2
The path is not of a legal form.

The verbose switch does not tell me more. it would be good to know WHICH path is not ok.

I figured out this happens only when I specify the nuspec file.

cpack myfile.nuspec gives the error
cpack works fine

I am using v0.9.9.2

Use .\myfile.nuspec

Out of curiosity, are you using powershell?

`cpack myfile.nuspec` gives the error
`cpack` works fine

thanks for the answer @ferventcoder

nop. I ran cpack in a command prompt (not powershell).

So cpack myfile.nuspec is expected to fail but not cpack .\myfile.nuspec ?
Odd, isn´t it 😕 ?

(GH-164) Fix "The path is not of a legal form"
f810e18 
When file_system.get_full_path is passed an empty string resulting from grabbing
the directory name, it would throw the error above. Instead, allow it to return
immediately, then use the current directory instead.

This usually happens when calling `choco pack some.nuspec`.
