Hibernate 2.1.8 with EhCache 0.9 throws exception on Windows in EhCacheProvider.start if the filepath to ehcache.xml contains spaces. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: HB-1512 URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HB-1512 Project: Hibernate2 Type: Bug

Components: core Versions: 2.1.8 Environment: Platform Microsoft Windows XP, Hibernate Version 2.1.8, EhCache 0.9, JBoss 4.0.2. Installed directory "c:\program files" Reporter: Sandip Ghosh

I have an application deployed in JBoss 4.0.2 using Hibernate 2.1.8 using EhCache 0.9 on Windows platform with the deployment directory off "c:\program files". In EhCacheProvider.start() method the code: manager = CacheManager.create(); throws an exception caused by a FileNotFoundException in net.sf.ehcache.config.Configurator.configure when attempting to parse ehcache.xml file because the file path has spaces in it. I have filed an bug against the Ehcache project at the following URL: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1237017&... Ehcache 1.1 has a method to create load the cache from an InputStream to the ehcache.xml object. Modifying the code in EhCacheProvider to call net.sf.ehcache.CacheManager.create(InputStream) will work in windows when there are spaces in the deployment directory. My temporary solution was to swallow the exception in EhCacheProvider.
