Can't start continuum
---------------------

         Key: CONTINUUM-329
         URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/CONTINUUM-329
     Project: Continuum
        Type: Bug
    Versions: 1.0-alpha-4    
 Environment: tested with 1.0-alpha-4 and a daily snapshot
Win XP
JDK 1.4.2
 Reporter: Arnaud Heritier
     Fix For: 1.0-beta-1
 Attachments: CONTINUUM-329.log

When I launch plexus.bat I receive the error :
C:\Programs\dev\continuum-1.0-alpha-4\bin>plexus.bat
Usage: java [-options] class [args...]
           (to execute a class)
   or  java [-options] -jar jarfile [args...]
           (to execute a jar file)
....

I attached the full log with echo enabled.

My problem comes from the fact that my path ends with a \ :
-Dplexus.system.path="C:\Programs\dev\php-4.3;C:\Programs\dev\svn\bin;C:\Programs\db\oracle\ora92\bin;C:\Programs\web\PuTTY;C:\Programs\dev\j2sdk1.4.2\BIN;C:\Programs\dev\apache-maven-dev\BIN;C:\Programs\dev\apache-ant-1.6.5\BIN;C:\Programs\dev\WinCvs1.3\CVSNT;C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32;C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\WBEM;C:\PROGRAMS\DEV\TCL\BIN;C:\PROGRAMS\DEV\PYTHON23\.;C:\Program Files\Fichiers communs\Roxio Shared\DLLShared;C:\Program Files\Bureautique\UltraEdit;C:\Programs\dev\WinCvs1.3\CVSNT;C:\Program Files\System\Support Tools;C:\Program Files\Support Tools\;;C:\Programs\dev\maven-2\bin;C:\Programs\dev\TortoiseSVN\bin;C:\Program Files\ATI Technologies\ATI Control Panel;C:\Program Files\Fichiers communs\Adobe\AGL;C:\Program Files\ATI Technologies\ATI.ACE\" 

If I change my path with :
-Dplexus.system.path="C:\Programs\dev\php-4.3;C:\Programs\dev\svn\bin;C:\Programs\db\oracle\ora92\bin;C:\Programs\web\PuTTY;C:\Programs\dev\j2sdk1.4.2\BIN;C:\Programs\dev\apache-maven-dev\BIN;C:\Programs\dev\apache-ant-1.6.5\BIN;C:\Programs\dev\WinCvs1.3\CVSNT;C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32;C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\WBEM;C:\PROGRAMS\DEV\TCL\BIN;C:\PROGRAMS\DEV\PYTHON23\.;C:\Program Files\Fichiers communs\Roxio Shared\DLLShared;C:\Program Files\Bureautique\UltraEdit;C:\Programs\dev\WinCvs1.3\CVSNT;C:\Program Files\System\Support Tools;C:\Program Files\Support Tools\;;C:\Programs\dev\maven-2\bin;C:\Programs\dev\TortoiseSVN\bin;C:\Program Files\ATI Technologies\ATI Control Panel;C:\Program Files\Fichiers communs\Adobe\AGL;C:\Program Files\ATI Technologies\ATI.ACE" 

It works.

To prevent this you can add do something like :
-Dplexus.system.path="%PATH%;."
