Can't you just trim the huge path and give 'move' the key not the full path so that you try to run this instead:

cd /d H:/softwaredistribution/hudson/jobs/Conservation_Payment_Release +/workspace/trunk/target/checkout/conservation-ejb-batch/target; move +/Y was6-maven-plugin w6

Update: You don't appear to be that close to the 255 point when the failure happens so the problem is probably that the directory is 'in use' in a way that prevents it from being renamed. The move fails but produces no error message? That is strange. You could get the old SysInternals filemon and see the error reason for the move failing or use Perl's rename and report $! and $^E after that fails.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
