I'm assuming I am not doing something correctly. Any help appreciated.

The solution is to assure that all paths used do not include spaces.

If you use Cygwin or MSYS where paths with spaces often occur, then fix the paths via mounts (/etc/fstab). On Unix type systems, symbolic links should work but these will fail if a script needs to visit the directory and does `pwd` to collect information on the current directory.
