>             Project: HBase
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: scripts
>    Affects Versions: 0.96.0
>         Environment: Windows, Linux
>            Reporter: G G

> When setting one of the HBASE_CONF_DIR, HBASE_LOG_DIR, or HBASE_CLASSPATH environment variables to a directory containing a whitespace, the Linux shell scripts to start/stop hbase daemons (bin/start-hbase.sh) resp. the scripts it calls stop working. I tried to create a patch for this but unfortunately my shell-script knowledge does not suffice.
> In some lines, escaping the used environment variables seems to do the trick but I was not able to fix the code that builds the command line in bin/hbase which looks like this:
> {noformat}
> HBASE_OPTS="$HBASE_OPTS -Dhbase.log.dir=$HBASE_LOG_DIR"
> ...
> {noformat}
> If HBASE_LOG_DIR is e.g. "/tmp/foo bar" then HBASE_OPTS becomes "... -Dhbase.log.dir=/tmp/foo bar" and when java is started it interprets bar as the main-class argument.
> On Windows, HBase would not start unless I escaped the HBASE_CONF_DIR environment variable using double quotes.
> If anyone has an idea on how to fix this, I could try to build a patch.
