Windows platform – APPCPATH is not being set in the classpath (ID 6419847)

It has been observed that the appclient.bat command is not accepting the APPCPATH when running on Windows. The problem can be traced to quotes around the APPCPATH statement in the apppclient.bat file. For example, the following statement fails:

set CLASSPATH="%JAXP_IMPL_JARS%";%JVM_CLASSPATH%
if not %APPCPATH%x == x set CLASSPATH=%CLASSPATH%;"%APPCPATH%"

Whereas the following statement works correctly:

set CLASSPATH=%JAXP_IMPL_JARS%;%JVM_CLASSPATH%
if not %APPCPATH%x == x set CLASSPATH=%CLASSPATH%;%APPCPATH%

Solution

Remove the double quotes that surround the references to APPCPATH (and JAXP_IMPL_JARS).
