Fabian Lange commented on KARAF-4235:
-------------------------------------
yes but start.bat sets a non empty variable, which will cause the directory
existing check in karaf.bat to fail. This is what my error output confirms.
The reason i wonder is that on linux it has similar code but does start with
nonexistant data dir.
> WIndows start script requires data dir

> Key: KARAF-4235
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KARAF-4235
> Project: Karaf
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 4.0.3
> Reporter: Fabian Lange
> Assignee: Jean-Baptiste Onofré
> Fix For: 4.0.4
>
>
> I am observing the following problem
> On linux, if I delete the data dir, it is recreated.
> On Windows, if I run the start.bat, the output is:
> karaf.bat: Ignoring predefined value for KARAF_HOME
> karaf.bat: KARAF_DATA is not valid:
> "C:\Users\Fabian\Downloads\apache-karaf-4.0.3\bin\..\data"
> C:\Users\Fabian\Downloads\apache-karaf-4.0.3\bin>
> I checked the difference, and right now I am actually wondering more why it
> works on linux, rather than why it doesn't on windows, but I think also n
> windows the data dir should be recreated.
> STR:
> Download Karaf 4.0.3 on windows.
> unpack and delete data dir.
> try to run start.bat
> running karaf.bat will work however
