I'm working on Windows 8 using oracle Java 7 and JRuby (from TorqueBox 2.2.0). In the terminal the JAVA_HOME environment variable has some weird behaviors ...
If I enter "set" I get what I'm expecting:
JAVA_HOME=C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre7
I can for instance run bundle exec rspec and it will work Then I run
set COVERAGE=true
and run the same command again and I will get
Cannot locate Java installation, specified by JAVA_HOME:
I can enter this several time, always the same result. But mysteriously I can sometime do something like
jruby -S bundle exec spec
and it will sometimes work ... sometimes not ...
It's totally random and unpredictable ... it's a real pain ! Anyone any idea ? From my point of view it just looks like an old Windows bug because everything was fine on Windows 7
Already tested:
It may have to do with the whitespace inside of the path. You've defined it properly, but some scripts may use it like this:
%JAVA_HOME%\bin\java ...
which will fail. In cases like this, one always must remember the quote marks:
"%JAVA_HOME%\bin\java" ...
Except that you say the behaviour is random... Anyway, try moving the installation to a folder without whitespace in the name, see what it does.
