Question

HI Guys I Have A jar File Named Column Reader. I am trying to Run it using a .bat file that has the Following Script:

@echo off
java.exe -jar Column Reader.jar parameter

Can Anyone tell me why it is not Running? Because I have Managed t Run Another Jar File Named Nope.jar the same way.

Answer 1

This is because you have a space in the file name. Try instead with:

java.exe -jar "Column Reader.jar" parameter

Or better still, rename your JAR file to column-reader.jar. Generally JAR files are named in all lowercase, often without any spaces in the file names.

Some examples of proper JAR file names:

org.springframework.web.struts-3.1.1.RELEASE.jar
poi-ooxml-schemas.jar
slf4j-api.jar
soap.jar
