Embedded error: Error while executing the external compiler'

Hello
I am getting the error 'Embedded error: Error while
executing the external compiler'. 
This occurs when I have the following configurations -
<plugin>
	<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
        <artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
        	<configuration>
                	<fork>true</fork>
                        <verbose>true</verbose>
                
<compilerVersion>1.3</compilerVersion>
                       
<executable>D:\jdk1.3.1_19/bin/javac</executable>
                </configuration> 
</plugin> 

I have more than 1200 java files in my project which i
need to compile with jdk 1.3. I guess the javac
command is too large and hence this problem.
Can somebody suggest a way to solve this problem

Thanks in advance
Ram

Try to compile on another operating system ie Linux. Perhaps the javac
command is too long for Windows but will work on Linux?

Or split your project up a bit -- 1200 files is quite a lot. Make a
few library jars and use dependencies to bring it all together.
