Good Day Everyone

I wanted to set up my first project with TinderBox and hit a wall: I am Getting a Parsing Error on the templates.

Not sure what is wrong exactly. The referenced Xml files seem fine to me. The executable was not moves or altered.  
The only idea I have is wether it could be that my username containing an exotic character and being contained in the filepath could be a problem, but I would call it unlikely.

And suggestion is greatly appreciated.  
Cheers, Joel

Okay, so just tried copying the entire Cinder Folder to a directory whose path does not include any special characters, and it worked as promised. Interesting.
