Please try verification step in "Getting Java" session from the tutorial http://code.google.com/appengine/docs/java/gettingstarted/installing.html
java -version javac -version If error, it's likely you need to add {JAVA_HOME}\bin to "Path" variable. Typically you might need to remove "bin" out of your JAVA_HOME setting "C: \Program Files (x86)\Java\jdk1.6.0_18\bin". Thanks.
