Thank you, Joaquin, that has worked for me.
It would be helpful, it would have saved me some time, to have a pointer to this resource on the "Getting Started" page.
The new "Getting Started" Dave is writing for the 1.34 release (using BBv2) does precisely that :-) And for historical records, we managed to find the problem and solution to the spawn problem on Windows a short time ago during an IRC session. It turns out that it's an OS "bug". If your PATH environment variable is "very long" it causes failures on searching through the path to fail in this context. The "solution" is to shorten the PATH, for example by using 8.3 names. HTH. [For archive searching use.]
ERROR: spawn: Invalid argument PROBLEM: Long PATH variable SOLUTION: Shorten PATH
