SYMPTOMS
When you run the Appupdater.exe tool that is included in Microsoft TV Foundation Edition 1.7, you receive an error message that is similar to the following:

Could not find a part of the path &quot; &quot;.

Note In this error message,  is a placeholder for the path and file name of the XML file.



CAUSE
This behavior occurs when the global manifest file contains an Application element that has the incorrect path of the XML file or the incorrect file name of the XML file. This global manifest file is passed as an argument to the Appupdater.exe tool.



RESOLUTION
To resolve this behavior, make sure that the Application element in the global manifest file has the correct path and file name of the XML file.



Steps to reproduce the behavior
  Create a global manifest file that contains an incorrect Application element. For example, you have the following correct path that contains no space in the AncientTiles folder name:

C:\PixelGames\Current\Week1\AncientTiles

Therefore, create a GM.xml file that contains the following Application element.   C:\PixelGames\Current\Week1\Ancient Tiles\AncientTiles.xml    Type the following command at a command prompt:

appupdater -i GM.xml http://localhost:1701/AppUpdater/ILApp.asmx

</ol>

Note After you run this command, you receive the error message that is mentioned in the &quot;Symptoms&quot; section.
