As usual it is getting fuzzy, but are you using the correct mouse click?
   I always get confused switching games and keep trying to use the 
wrong buttons.
abandon quest? although I don't recall if it is a questlog entry or just 
a state to achieve.
overwrite the mill with something else then build the mill again?
   expensive


Are any other trees highlighting on the map? maybe you can click them. 
there should be quite a few to the north of the draenic village se of 
the garrison.
I like the way their outline glows when they are at fade-to-grey 
distance :-)

Also with trees, oh the number of times I have harvested a tree then 
been stuck to it by standing too close:-( . Relog, no use.  And with the 
bugs/server overload couldn't hearth to inn or garrison, and then on 
cooldown anyway. sigh.
Why do they trigger the cooldown when it fails grrr.

Yepp, Tried both of them. Nothing works. Also, my mouse cursor does not
change when moving over the tree.

It's a quest log entry, and I've tried that twice already without success.

Naw, not worth it for my brief visit.

>  Are any other trees highlighting on the map? maybe you can click them. 

Yeah, I can see those and with them the cursor changes to the saw wheel.
However, trying to click them I get the message that I need the lumber mill
first (though I have it, just unable to do the "opener quest").

Drop the quest, logout of client completely , then try it? this is just 
random button pushing.

Since you aren't there for long the resources from trees aren't all that 
great anyway, if you were grinding to 100 you would get a lot more gr 
from rares etc than the 120 a day from the mill work orders.
6 per day x 20??
Also you have to get the timber as well, lvl1 give half a work order or 
so, but at first it used to be rare to find any timber outside 1am-5am
  If you can see any it means most chars have moved on.
Pretty quickly you start finding many need lvl2 mill then lvl 3, the 
small timber become rarer and you can't harvest the larger timber.  If 
you aren't harvesting you aren't distracted, or stuck in a tree  with 5 
mobs and a rare respawning constantly on you :-).

  Not so important since you have pets.
If you get the chit to buy plans in stormshield consider getting lvl 2 
barracks and use your bodyguard. The extra dps/skills makes levelling 
quite a bit faster.

The DK from stormshield is very efficient with its skills for tanking 
and aoe.
Although a bit psycho with bunched mobs, you can't control it like a 
pet. Useless the few times you have to control/capture a mob and you can 
miss tags/kills but generally very useful. You can send it back to base 
any time.

If it dies you can't use it for an hour but you can go back to garrison 
and use another in that time if you have 2 bodyguard followers.

Yep, was going to say it's 6x30 a day but eh, I've got the follower
for it, which ofc you can't get until lvl 3, so 120 it is for Urbin.
I'd say just go hunting treasure instead, it'll bring in far more
resources for the limited amount of time and hopefully the quest will
fix itself with the weekly reset on Wednesday. Can always replace with
another building you can get more fun out of!

Known bug as you also said.  Luckily I got it on the first xrealm invite 
when I got the quest on an alt while a guildie I was grouped up with 
couldnt lumber the same tree.  He got it when he was invited to another 
realm though.  If you dont know other peeps you can always add me and 
let me invite you to my realm (darkmoon faire).  PeterT#2642.

Yes. It's smack in the middle of the blue circle and it's got a sparkling
trunk.

As it turns out, the cross-realm invitation made it possible to click on it,
as many had described on the forums.

So now I'm good to go.

Ah, that worked. I sent a friend request to Peter last night and this
morning when I breifly went online to check my mission progress he had
accepted and was online.

A quick whisper, he invited me and the sparkling unresponsive tree suddenly
turned my cursor into a saw wheel. One click and a few seconds later me
quest was finally done.

Thanks again for your help, Peter.

That bug was reported way back in beta. Go go quality control team.

On the cliff nw of the draenic village you may see a large fallen tree 
trunk spawn , harvesting it gives a follower
It appears on a low flat top mound next to the top of the cliff, sightly 
sw of an ancient tree mob path.

http://www.wowhead.com/follower=195.1/weldon-barov#comments
and they give a short quest chain once back in garrison,
it completes with random lumbering.

Gives a modestly useful trinket for practically no effort
http://www.wowhead.com/item=116154
   although sometimes the peons are bugged, they do nothing

The fallen tree also appears in other zones so no point in camping the 
one spot.

When you run into the brother the adds can hit hard, just target and 
kill the brother and they despawn.

I actually ran into Weldon Barov while riding around the southernmost zone
and encountered a fallen log. Picked up the quest and when I was back at my
Garrison rode out to find Alexis. He was a pushover, but I guess me being 97
helped :-)
