boost/tools/quickbook/index.html redirects to boost/doc/html/quickbook.html which redirects to http://boost-sandbox.sourceforge.net/doc/html/quickbook.html. The latter does not exist.

Similar scenario for boost/tools/boostbook/index.html

Thanks for reporting this. It's because the documentation build broke when boost build changed its directory. I'm running a new build now.

No problem. I don't know if this is related, or if this should be the topic of a new thread. I'm trying to get BoostBook and QuickBook up and running, but am running into trouble. I've successfully run tools/boostbook/setup_boostbook.py from tools/boostbook/installs. I've successfully run build/bootstrap.sh from build so that b2.exe and bjam.exe were created in build. If I follow the directions at the end of http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_55_0/doc/html/quickbook/install.html, the following error messages:

../build/bjam.exe ./Jamfile.v2 <snip>/tools/build/src/build/project.jam:262: in find-jamfile from module project error: Unable to load Jamfile. error: Could not find a Jamfile in directory '../../tools/inspect/build'. error: Attempted to find it with pattern '[Bb]uild.jam [Jj]amfile.v2 [Jj]amfile [Jj]amfile.jam'. error: Please consult the documentation at 'http://www.boost.org'. [snip]

That's odd, there should be a jamfile at 'tools/inspect/build/Jamfile.v2'. Can you check it's there? Maybe something went wrong when you were checking out the submodules.

If on the other hand I do run bjam from the tools/build I get:

./bjam.exe ../quickbook/Jamfile.v2

The inspect error is happening because boost's Jamroot depends on it. If you run bjam inside of build, I think it uses build's Jamroot instead, which is why there's no error. But it also possibly means that build isn't configured to build quickbook. I'm not sure, the people on the build list will know more than I do.
