I don't know. Why don't you put at the expected location? The code does
this:

        String javaHome = System.getProperty("java.home"); 
        File toolsJar = new File(javaHome + "/../lib/tools.jar");

Check where java.home points to on your machine and then put it in
javahome/../lib/tools.jar

Taking a win tools.jar probably won't work.
