Saphen Qiu commented on GERONIMO-6291: -------------------------------------- There has another issue occur when I set the command line windows' default path from "C:\Users\yourname" to such as "D:\" through adding "AutoRun" on "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\CommandProcessor" and set the value to "CD /D D:\". The issue will be like this: 'internalLauncher.bat' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. After removing the "AutoRun" or set the cmd path back to default value, this issue goes. > Cannot start server on windows caused by space chars in the related > installation paths > -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: GERONIMO-6291 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GERONIMO-6291 > Project: Geronimo > Issue Type: Bug > Security Level: public(Regular issues) > Components: startup/shutdown > Affects Versions: 3.0, 3.0-beta-2 > Reporter: Forrest Xia > Assignee: Saphen Qiu > Fix For: 3.0-beta-2 > > Attachments: GERONIMO-6291-fixSpaceIssueForServerStartup.patch > > > Having the latest Geronimo 3.0-beta-2 snapshot build, then doing these steps > to reproduce the issue: > 1. Install the jdk into a folder with space chars in the path > 2. Install the geronimo server into a non-space path > 3. set java_home=c:\path2jdkhome, not that no quotes there > 4. run command: geronimo_home\bin\geronimo.bat run -l > You will see a failure something like this: > '""C:\Java\jdk1.6.0' is not recognized as an internal or external command, > operable program or batch file. > Basically, it is caused by the space characters in the windows file path. So > to resolve the issues completely, we need to consider these scenarios: > 1. JDK installation path includes spaces, and geronimo installation path does > not > 2. JDK installation path does not have, but geronimo has > 3. Both JDK and Geronimo have space char in the path -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
