ENOENT on writeFileSync

I've posted this on stackoverflow also, so anyone able to help can get some points there.

I'm using the code on this site to write a gulp file for a Windows aspnet + angularjs app.

I'm running only styles for now, and when I run gulp I get:

Error: ENOENT, no such file or directory 'C:\project\build\manifest-debug.json'
at Error (native)
at Object.fs.openSync (fs.js:502:18)
at Object.fs.writeFileSync (fs.js:1103:15)

Looking at C:\project\node_modules\gulp-asset-manifest\index.js:30:8 I see:

fs.writeFileSync(filename, JSON.stringify(data));

So I ran this on node's REPL:

fs.writeFileSync('C:\\project\\build\\manifest-debug.json', 'hi');

And the file was created correctly.

I tried running gulp again with an existing file and got the exact same error.

I added a console.log(filename); before line 30 on index.js and I got:

./build/manifest-debug.json

So I ran fs.writeFileSync('./build/manifest-debug.json', 'hi'); on REPL from the same folder and it worked too.

gulp-asset-manifest is being called with these options:

{ bundleName: 'scripts',
  includeRelativePath: true,
  manifestFile: './build/manifest-debug.json',
  log: true,
  pathPrepend: undefined,
  pathSeparator: '/' }

Not sure what's going on.

I'm running everything with UAC disabled and on a command prompt with admin rights.
