That's why I remain the "set _RUNJAVA ..." with double quotes as before. was (Author: saphen): Because of "start /B "Geronimo Application Server" /d"%GERONIMO_HOME%"\bin %GERONIMO_WIN_START_ARGS% internalLauncher.bat" can not be used with double quotes, and as a value of _EXECJAVA the same with _RUNJAVA which needs to be used with double quotes, so there has conflict.

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.
