Roo setup, can't execute roo from project folder

I'm making a GWT app with roo (new to me) and it's late at night so I'm clearly missing something but I just created a new project folder and am trying to run roo.bat (works fine when I execute the bin directory) but it won't go. I keep getting this e开发者_如何学Crror:

C:\springsource\spring-roo-1.1.4.RELEASE\newProject> ../bin/roo.bat
'..' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

Am I on crazy pills? I guess this is more of a windows command line issue but it should work (on Vista btw). Is there something about Roo.bat that won't let itself be executed from another directory or something weird?

Try this if helps:

Go to Start, My Computer, right click, Properties, Advanced Definitions, Environment Variables.

In User Variables, create JAVA_HOME, ROO_HOME, MAVEN_HOME and the path should be the installation of those apps.

Then in System Variables add also the path of roo, maven and Java separated by semicolon ;.

Then go to start menu, type cmd, place it on desktop, like C:\Users\Martinho\Desktop
type mkdir myApp then enter

cd myApp

finally type roo. There it is roo shell

Hope this helps.

Don't create your projects within the Roo installation. Instead, set an environment variable as ROO_HOME which points to the Roo installation, and add %ROO_HOME%/bin to your system path.

This makes it possible to run Roo console from any location.
