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

             Summary: Cannot run the "hbase shell" command on Windows
                 Key: HBASE-12960
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-12960
             Project: HBase
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: shell
    Affects Versions: 0.99.2
         Environment: Windows 8.1
            Reporter: Lukas Eder
            Priority: Minor


I've just downloaded and unzipped hbase 0.99.2 and tried to run this command:

{code}
C:\hbase-0.99.2\bin>hbase shell
Invalid maximum heap size: -Xmx1000m "
Error: Could not create the Java Virtual Machine.
Error: A fatal exception has occurred. Program will exit.
{code}

The command is documented here:
http://hbase.apache.org/book.html#_get_started_with_hbase

The problem is in hbase.cmd on line 296

{code}
set HEAP_SETTINGS="%JAVA_HEAP_MAX% %JAVA_OFFHEAP_MAX%"
{code}

The quotes should be stripped:

{code}
set HEAP_SETTINGS=%JAVA_HEAP_MAX% %JAVA_OFFHEAP_MAX%
{code}
