Every time I try to resolve dependencies using Play 1.2.5(also tried 1.2.4) by typing play dependencies at the command line, I get the following error:
~ Resolving dependencies using C:\Workspace\moosejuice\conf\dependencies.yml,

I get this error even for freshly created projects, with no changes to dependencies.yml. I thought maybe it was a permissions thing, but there are no limitations I can see on any of those folders, and I've tried cmd.exe in admin mode, as well as normal mode.
I'm fairly sure I've resolved dependencies on this machine before; what could have changed to give me this error?
EDIT: I've tested now to see if it was an antivirus program, firewall, or microsoft security, but even with all of those off, no dice.
java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError
Thrown if the Java Virtual Machine cannot find an appropriate native-language definition of a method declared native.
This exception means the jvm fails to resolve the native method createFileExclusively on java.io.WinNTFileSystem
This sounds a lot like a DLL loading problem which can be hell to debug. I am trying to locate the dll containing the linked method but I haven't done that in a long time The dll which contains the native method definition is java.dll in jdk\jre\bin or in jre\bin
From various tests I was unable to reproduce the exact same issue. I would say you probably have in your dll load path a java.dll with a version which differs from the version of java.exe used by play.
The quickest would be to reinstall the jre/jdk used by play.
