Question

I’m trying to run a Java program from a script called converter.cmd but something is wrong.

    P:\LatitudeConsulting\LatConConverter-1.8.2>dir
 Volume in drive P has no label.
 Volume Serial Number is 1074-4BBE

 Directory of P:\LatitudeConsulting\LatConConverter-1.8.2

Here is the content of converter.cmd:

cd %~dp0%
jre.1.6.0\bin\java -Xmx1024m -cp Converter.jar com.latcon.ExportConvert.Converter %1 %2

Here is what I get when I type converter at the above command prompt:

    P:\LatitudeConsulting\LatConConverter-1.8.2>converter

P:\LatitudeConsulting\LatConConverter-1.8.2>cd P:\LatitudeConsulting\LatConConverter-1.8.2\

P:\LatitudeConsulting\LatConConverter-1.8.2>jre.1.6.0\bin\java -Xmx1024m -cp Converter.jar com.latcon.ExportConvert.Conv

Looks like no java.exe exists – only java.dll

Answer 1

Try jre.1.6.0\bin\java.exe – with the extension.
