jboss.home= D:\EE557ServerSide\ejb3\jboss

Try the forward slash

jboss.home= D:/EE557ServerSide/ejb3/jboss

thanks!!!

why was that ?

When you had used D:\EE557ServerSide\ejb3\jboss, the error had shown that

D:\EE557ServerSide\ejb3\j2ee-1_4-doc-tutorial_2\j2eetutorial14\
examples\bank\EE557ServerSideejb3jboss\client not found.

Since the path was considered as a single word, i guessed it might have to do with the backslash(escape character). So i thought, using the frontslash is worth a try.

Hi All,

In Properties file, We never use backslash. Always use front slash. Actually it reads properties file as string and always search front slash as delimeter in file path. That's why backslash does not work.
