Chris,

Does the user you are running the agent as have a home directory that it 
can write to? It may be that it's trying to establish an artifact cache 
on the deployment target prior to copying the artifacts to the target 
directory. In that case, you would need to have a home directory for the 
agent's user, or disable caching.

Thanks,

Eric
