SQLSERVER_ABSPATH EV does not allow a value with white space


Yanzhuang Li (31134126) | asked Nov 26 '08, 10:50 a.m.
When trying to setup the envirinment variable SQLSERVER_ABSPATH, I noticed that a whitespace is not allowed in the value. For example, if it is set to "E:\Program Files\sqljdbc_1.2\enu", an error was thrown when running repotools - "Files\sqljdbc_1.2\enu=[] not found". I did not see the error when the EV was set to "E:\temp\SQL_JDBC\sqljdbc_1.2\enu".

Anyone noticed this?

Is this a Microsoft bug or a RTC bug? I assume the latter. Any comment? Thanks,

Yes, we are aware of the problem.

You need to use E:[b:1d4ebcace0]Progra~1\sqljdbc_1.2\enu to use the sql jdbc jar from program files directory.
