in thread How to open a pipe from CMD if CMD has quotes?

Without knowing what your error was in it's specific context, I can't really point you anywhere. However, passing of command line arguments is handled by the shell (except in DOS, where I think you have to parse them out yourself), so if you are using a unix shell, your quoting of the command line is correct if you indeed intended 2 arguments. Let us know what you find with further testing.

    The problem ended up being on my end. Someone had installed cygwin and placed it in the path. It was trying to call /usr/bin/rmdir instead of the windows rmdir so the builds were not getting cleaned... Sorry for the bother :)
