Test built from WADL fails with "URIException: escaped absolute path not valid"

I have a simple prototype using CXF running on my laptop, using "wget" for testing.  The URL used for the test has nothing unusual in it.  No spaces or special characters.

I used CXF to generate the WADL file and stored that to disk (the new project dialog doesn't grok it if I specify the WADL URL) and was able to create a new project from the WADL. When I tried to run a test, I got

"Thu Sep 17 11:57:08 PDT 2009:INFO:Error getting response for [rest?_wadl&type=xml./item/{id}:Request 1]; org.apache.commons.httpclient.URIException: escaped absolute path not valid"

In the "Request 1" test in the new project, the initial part of the URL is "http://localhost:7001", and the "Full path" field adds "/SSAxis/rest/catalog/item/{id}". In the Name/Value pairs table, I set the value for "id" to "1".

I've attached the WADL file.

    After bringing up this version, I noticed that the automatic display of the "soapUI Starter Page" fails with a "network timeout".  I have a feeling this has something to do with the proxy settings, which I copied from Firefox, and which work fine.  This didn't happen with the previous nightly builds, and I just tested it with the 3.0.1 GA release, and this doesn't display that symptom.  I don't really care about this functionality, but you probably do.

    However, the original problem I had is now fixed.  It correctly removes consecutive slashes in the resulting URL.
