I try to run a java application through scheduled task in XP :

at 11:00 /every:m,t,w,th,f,s,su cmd /c "C:\Projects\piko\dist\piko.jar" arg

I realize in piko.jar, it always read empty for

System.getProperty("user.home")

If I run it as normal application through command prompt,

java -jar C:\Projects\piko\dist\piko.jar arg

The environment variable is there.

May I know how can I resolve this?

    Have you tried:

    cmd /c "java -jar C:\Projects\piko\dist\piko.jar arg"
    

    Otherwise you probably have to specify a username and password to use when you schedule the task… it might be that XP is running it under some internal/system account which has no associated “user”, per se.
