[jira] Commented: (DERBY-2501) Batch scripts in bin\ report extraneous errors when DERBY_HOME is invalid

["John H. Embretsen (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

John H. Embretsen commented on DERBY-2501:
------------------------------------------

I have verified that the latest patch, derby-2501-check-javacmd.diff, will remove all unnecessary error messages mentioned in this Jira issue. I also verified that the default Java path can be overridden by setting JAVA_HOME. Tested on Win XP Pro, using JDK 1.4.2_12 and Java SE 6 (1.6.0) (default).

I think this patch is ready for commit.

> If DERBY_HOME is set to an invalid location (for example a directory that does not contain lib\derby.jar), most .bat scripts in the bin directory (the ones that call derby_common.bat) report three distinct error messages, of which only one is of value to the user. 
> Reproduction:
> C:\Derby_10\db-derby-10.2.2.0-bin>set DERBY_HOME=c:\temp
> C:\Derby_10\db-derby-10.2.2.0-bin>echo %DERBY_HOME%
> c:\temp
> C:\Derby_10\db-derby-10.2.2.0-bin>bin\sysinfo
> DERBY_HOME is set incorrectly or derby.jar could not be located. Please set DERBY_HOME.
> The system cannot find the batch label specified - end
> '""' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
> operable program or batch file.
> The distinct error messages are:
> 1) DERBY_HOME is set incorrectly or derby.jar could not be located. Please set DERBY_HOME.
> 2) The system cannot find the batch label specified - end
> 3) '""' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.
> Only 1) is relevant for the user, and should ideally be the only one displayed.
