D.3 Image Tool Fails if the Installation Path Contains Special Characters

If encoding characters such as '+' or '%' are included in the path where Oracle JRockit Virtual Edition binary file (jrockitve.bin) and Image Tool (jrockitve-imagetool.jar) are located, Image Tool fails to execute any command. For example, if you run a command from directories such as 'my+dir' or 'my%adir', Image Tool throws an error.

Image Tool recognizes the path as an URL and decodes it. If the path contains encoding characters, the path will be translated to a wrong directory.

Workaround

Do not include characters such as '+' or '%' in the Oracle JRockit Virtual Edition installation path.
