'localhost' is not recognized as an internal or external command,

I have my installation in D and seems like environment variables are not set correctly, but when I restart the box the confluence will start then I assume the environment variables are ok

Thank you so much, I think the path had spaces and I change it with

C:\Progra~1

it was:

C:\Program Files\

and now seems to be working.

thanks again

Hi,

can you share part of log when you try to start and stop application? It looks like problem with escaping space in path.

Hi @Samer Odeh ,

I suggest a problem in path name. It looks like it has spaces and lost double quotes.

"Error: Unable to access jarfile D:\Program_"

How are You start/stop confluence? as service or bat script?
