Failing to connect

[jch8888]

Hi everyone,
Here's the problem, there's a server with JBoss installed and running perfectly on it. The jboss directory from this machine is taken and placed on a new machine, and when trying to execute the run.bat file this is the error that comes up. It doesn't seem to be touched upon in the forums:

If the new machine is also a Windows machine, make sure that the JRE/JDK is not installed in a path containing a space - e.g. C:/program files/...

It also doesn't hurt to ensure that the same goes for JBoss.

Java doesn't particularly like this.

This is most likely your problem.

JBoss Bootstrap Environment

JBOSS_HOME: D:\Java\JBOSS\bin\\..

JAVA: D:\Java\j2sdk1.4.0_01\bin\java

JAVA_OPTS: -Dprogram.name=run.bat

CLASSPATH: ;D:\Java\j2sdk1.4.0_01\lib\tools.jar;D:\Java\JBOSS\bin\\run.jar

tried to change the directories so that there wouldn't be spaces, and that didn't help so much, still got the same exceptions happening
