Problem with WebCenter tutorial - JDev 11.1.1.3, WCF 11.1.1.3.0.100707.1000

Question

Hi,
I'm working through the WebCenter tutorial in the FMW documentation. All has worked fine until I reached step 8 (Add the People Connections Service to Your Application) in chapter 5 (Adding Oracle WebCenter Services to Your Application).
When I add the Connections task flow (parts 6 - 9 in step 8) and try to run the page, I consistently get the following exception from the embedded WLS. This happens when I run the page (the app compiles and deploys successfully).
<ProfileViewsBean><initViews>

This is typically due to an error in the configuration of the objects referenced by this expression.
If it helps, the expression "#{bindings.connectionsmainviewuntabbedtaskflow1}" evaluates to "null".
If it helps, the expression "#{bindings}" evaluates to "oracle_webcenter_peopleconnections_connections_view_jsf_fragments_ConnectionsMainView_untabbedPageDef".  Now using an empty RegionModel instead.

...If I remove the Connections task flow and re-run the page, it works fine again. I've retried a number of times, all with the same result.
Anyone any ideas?
Thanks.

I've resolved this thanks to Error Configuring Peopel Connection Task flows
I created a JDEV_USER_HOME environment variable, pointed it at a folder without a space in the name, restarted JDeveloper from that folder and the task flow now works.
