When starting play framework 2, i seem not to be able to run an application that is newly created. I use jdk7u45 on a w7 64bit machine.

C:\dev\play\play-2.0\workspace>play new yabe
       _            _
 _ __ | | __ _ _  _| |
| '_ \| |/ _' | || |_|
|  __/|_|\____|\__ (_)
|_|            |__/

play! 2.0, http://www.playframework.org

The new application will be created in C:\dev\play\play-2.0\workspace\yabe

What is the application name?
> yabe

Which template do you want to use for this new application?

  1 - Create a simple Scala application
  2 - Create a simple Java application
  3 - Create an empty project

> 1

OK, application yabe is created.

Have fun!


C:\dev\play\play-2.0\workspace>cd yabe

C:\dev\play\play-2.0\workspace\yabe>play yabe
[info] Loading project definition from C:\dev\play\play-2.0\workspace\yabe\project

[error] Not a valid key: yabe (similar: name, stage, state)
[error] yabe
[error]     ^

C:\dev\play\play-2.0\workspace\yabe>

I tried all options, option 1, 2, 3 and nothing [directly enter]. Same error message as always, and localhost:9000 does not do anything (localhost:80 nothing either so nothing is running there).

Also

C:\dev\play\play-2.0\samples\java\helloworld>play helloworld

same error.

OK if i just type play in the helloworld, i get the following and also localhost:9000 shows nothing

C:\dev\play\play-2.0\samples\java\helloworld>play [info] Loading project definition from C:\dev\play\play-2.0\samples\java\helloworld\project [info] Set current project to helloworld (in build file:/C:/dev/play/play-2.0/samples/java/helloworld/) _ _ _ __ | | __ _ _ | | | ' \| |/ ' | || || | /||_|__ () || |__/

Type "help play" or "license" for more information. Type "exit" or use Ctrl+D to leave this console.

[helloworld] $

Any ideas how to make it work or at least how to pinpoint the issue?

Play's console hasn't such commands like yabe or helloworld

after cd to project use play - you'll get into the console so you can check with help command to check what are valid commands available...

Or just use play run ...
