The parent directory name cannot include any space chars?

I use jboss-3.2.1_tomcat-4.1.24, and it is installed in the directory under C:\Program Files. When I access the page, the following error displayed:

org.apache.jasper.JasperException: Unable to compile class for JSP

An error occurred at line: -1 in the jsp file: null

Generated servlet error:
[javac] Compiling 1 source file
[javac] javac: invalid argument: C:\Program
[javac] Usage: javac <source files>
[javac] where possible options include:
[javac] -g Generate all debugging info
[javac] -g:none Generate no debugging info
[javac] -g:{lines,vars,source} Generate only some debugging info
....

But if I move the directory to the directory which name does not include space chars, the app work fine.

I donot meet this problem in the previous JBoss+Tomecat.

what's wrong with the configuratiion? Thanks

I'm not quite sure which was your previous Tomcat package but Jasper2 now uses Ant to invoke the Java compiler. This is a Tomcat development. Ant will probably have problems creating the compiler invocation and "wrapping" the path correctly.

However, you should probably avoid placing JBoss and Tomcat installations in a path with spaces in them. This tends to cause problems with JNDI namespace bindings and RMI - particularly for remote clients. This is not particularly a JBoss or Tomcat issue but related to the Sun Java implementation AFAIK from JDC postings in the past.

Thank you!

The previous version I used is jboss-3.0.4_tomcat-4.1.12
