----------------------------------------

Hello [~bloritsch].  Thank you for the bug report.  This is also covered in HADOOP-9600, so I'm resolving this one as a duplicate.

> The issue came to light when trying to work with PIG, however, I've had to either repair the DOS commands for hadoop-config.cmd or perform some work-arounds.
> #. The default install location for both JDK and JRE are in "Program Files"  That space causes problems with the %JAVA% variable
> #. Adding quotes around the CLASSPATH and JAVA variables fix a great number of problems, but breaks the platform detection
> Due to my fix in the script breaking the platform detection, I can't recommend it outright.  My work-around for the platform detection was to run it from the command line directly, and then embed the result in the JAVA_PLATFORM variable with those results.  I.e. it will only work on my machine.
> This is an old problem that several projects had to fix when Java went to 1.3, not sure why it's back again.
