[jira] Created: (DAEMON-169) Procrun: cannot specify PATH Environement variable because of semicolon separator

Procrun: cannot specify PATH Environement variable because of semicolon separator
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: DAEMON-169
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DAEMON-169
             Project: Commons Daemon
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Procrun
    Affects Versions: 1.0.3
         Environment: Windows XP SP3
            Reporter: Bernd Eckenfels
            Priority: Minor


When specifying a --Environment PATH=C:\Windows\system32;C:\Windows this does not work, cause it is parsed/separated by the ; char and stored into multiple lines in the Registry. Maybe using only # as a seperator is a option or perhaps adding some form of quoting or a special argument form which does not take a list of parameters.

Mladen Turk resolved DAEMON-169.
--------------------------------

      Assignee: Mladen Turk
    Resolution: Invalid

Just put the parameter inside single or double quotes and it won't get expanded to multiple entries
if contains ; or # separator chars.

[jira] Commented: (DAEMON-169) Procrun: cannot specify PATH Environement variable because of semicolon separator

Bernd Eckenfels commented on DAEMON-169:
----------------------------------------

Thanks Mladen for the answer, I actually tried double quotes in various ways and it did not work. I could get a single line Argument with """PATH=a;b""" but in that case the quotes ended up in the registry. Using single quotes (tick) solved this problem: --Environment 'PATH=a;b'

It does not show up in the verbose logs, but I guess it is still fine.
