ERROR: URI has an authority component

[SamC]

I've just setup my environment (AppEngine using Java) using the Google
Plugin for Eclipse to create the sample StockWatch application (per
the following guide: http://code.google.com/webtoolkit/tutorials/1.6/create.html)

When I try to Run/Debug my Project as a Web Application, I get an "URI
has an authority component error", see exception stack below:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: URI has an authority component

I have simplified to create a new Google Web Application and I get
this error with the default project if I include the Google Web
Toolkit.

If I don't include the Google Web Toolkit, then I do NOT get this
error.

Has anyone else had this issue?

Thanks

Nevermind. I figured out that the issue was related to the fact that
my workspace was on Network Resource referenced through a UNC path.
When I moved the Workspace to my local machine, it resolved the issue.
