Hello everybody,

whenever I try to copy a file by the installer, I will get an error (see the attached file. For me it looks like an error, that only appears on windows systems...
Belonging to the attached file, the sign ":" is not allowed.

Is there an workaround to remove "c:" ?

Here is my task, that I am using.
<setupTask
xsi:type="setup:ResourceCopyTask"
excludedTriggers="STARTUP MANUAL"
sourceURL="setups/myPlugin.jar"
targetURL="${installation.location|property}/plugins/myPlugin.jar"/>
<description>Resource creation</description>
</setupTask>

These things should specify URIs but a file system path (especially on
Windows!) is not a URI. Try
${installation.location|uri}/plugins/myPlugin.jar which specifies a
file: URI which works uniformly on all platforms.

Hello Ed,

thank you for your fast response. Unfortunately, I still get an error, when I changed the targetURL to
${installation.location/plugins/myPlugin.jar|uri}

I followed the instructions on
https://wiki.eclipse.org/Eclipse_Oomph_Authoring

There is a new, but related exception:
