Dawid Weiss commented on SOLR-11441: ------------------------------------ I don't know what that page says, but on my machine(s) the '=' is definitely not split when passed to a raw Java process. {code} public class Test { public static void main(String[] args) { for (int i = 0; i < args.length; i++) { System.out.println(i + ": " + args[i]); } } } {code} Windows 10, with latest patches. When using {{cmd}}: {code} C:\_tmp>java -cp . Test -Dfoo=bar 0: -Dfoo=bar {code} When using {{powershell}}: {code} PS C:\_tmp> java -cp . Test -Dfoo=bar 0: -Dfoo=bar {code} > windows shell splits args on "=" so we should consider updating our docs to > always quote args like -Dfoo=bar or improve bin/solr.cmd to account for this > -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: SOLR-11441 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-11441 > Project: Solr > Issue Type: Bug > Security Level: Public(Default Security Level.
