Cannot create new CF instance from EAR ...why?

Hello,

Im attempting to build a new CF instance  from an EAR file from within the CF8 Enterprise Instance manager.

For some reason the instance manager does not recognize the location of the EAR file regardless of where i place it.

I've even went as far as to temporarily enable RDS  allowing the instance manager to browse to the file and populate the text box  with the location.

Unfortunately no matter ewhat i do I get ythe following error...

There was a problem
Message: The specified target  archive does not exist.
Detail: D:\wwwcontent\xxx.ear

Can anyone help with a workaround to this...perhaps bypassing CFIDE altogether and create it using the command line?

Thanks

    Create an instance without an EAR, stop it, remove the default EAR from it, place your own EAR in, start the instance.
