The problem with "NewGub" would seem to be my issue.  I've always made and 
uploaded GUB in a VM with a user gub and a directory called NewGub under 
that user's home directory.  I'm currently trying to build from a user with 
a home directory called gubd and in a directory called GubDir.  I do have a 
user called gub (it's where the VM lives) and could create a directory 
called NewGub and try to see if this works at this time.  Watch this space.
