Can you put together an example that produces the error without using 
odfWeave?  To do that, figure out what odfWeave is doing, and do it 
outside of that package.

If not, then we'll assume it's an odfWeave bug.  If you can duplicate 
this without odfWeave, obviously the error lies elsewhere.

One possibile odfWeave bug:  according to the messages below, it looks 
as though it is assuming that

unzip -o "Report input template.odt"

is a valid command.  Perhaps that is not true with the PATH in effect at 
the time you're trying to run it, and with the quote handling in effect 
then.
