ROWAN_PROJECTS_HOME is supposed to be added to the custom_stone.env file 
in the install_launcher.st script[1], called on this line[2] in the 
bootstrap_launcher script -- there is stop/start netldi following that 
to ensure that ROWAN_PROJECTS_HOME gets set for all topaz sessions 
launched against that stone ...

Could you have somehow bypassed that step?

I think that if you want to install in a freshly cloned GsDevKit_home 
instance, you should just skip the initial `updateGsDevKit -gdtcs` and 
then you'd be fine after that ...

I ran my tests in a separate GsDevKit_home instance (not freshly cloned, 
so the devKitCommandLine image had already been defined ... just 
invoking `devKitCommandLine` in a fresh clone, should build the 
devKitCommandLine image) and every time I ran into an error I would 
checkout the master version delete the shared/gemstone directory, fix my 
scripts (in another close) push to issue_260 and then do a fresh 
checkout and pull and then run the scripts from the beginning ...

You should not have to edit scripts and hardcode paths...

This error is also a result of not running the install_launcher.st 
script[1] ... you are missing symbolic links that are created here[3].

Perhaps you should try to install in a fresh clone and skip the 
`updateGsDevKit -gdtcs` step?
