Service can't be installed if the path contains a closed bracket ---------------------------------------------------------------- Key: WFLY-5751 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WFLY-5751 Project: WildFly Issue Type: Bug Components: Batch Affects Versions: 9.0.1.Final, 9.0.2.Final, 10.0.0.CR4 Environment: all Windows versions Reporter: Paul Wildberg Assignee: Cheng Fang Priority: Critical Labels: jboss Problem: If you start "service.bat install" in e.g. in C:\Program Files (x86)\wildfly-9.0.1.Final\bin\service you will get: Using the X86-64bit version of prunsrv "\wildfly-9.0.1.Final\domain\log" can not be used syntatically at this point (don't know if it is correct, I translated it from german. Original it is "kann syntaktisch an dieser Stelle nicht verarbeitet werden.") Cause: This is because of the ) in "Program Files (x86)" and this is a problem because in the service.bat in line 175 and 179 (set LOGPATH=%JBOSS_HOME%\domain\log - in version 9.0.1 and 9.0.2 - in Version 10 it may be in another line) the path is not set in double quotation marks. All other paths are set in double quotation marks. Solution: Set the path in double quotation marks: set LOGPATH="%JBOSS_HOME%\domain\log"
