Blank project creation error

[brandonaho]

Got everything installed and updated per instructions. I tried to create a blank project and am getting the following errors. Not sure how to resolve this. Just learning so bear with me. Sorry for the long post just wanted to provide as much information as I could.

It looks like you're running the build from a directory with a space in the name, /Users/brandonaho/Library/CloudStorage/Dropbox/Family Room/Refraze Game/Mobile App/ReFrazeSkip. The Skip build fails during the export step in directories with spaces. I just filed #604 on this.

Try again in a directory with no spaces (i.e. not in Family Room/ReFraze Game)
