Dear John. Thank you for this tutorial. It helps me.
I use Netbeans 6.8 and appengine-java-sdk-1.6.1
My projects works well in localhost:8080 but when I try to deploy project (changing appengine-web.xml) to Google I see:
The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect.
appcfg.cmd was chenged to:
“%JAVA_HOME%\bin\java” -cp “%~dp0\..\lib\appengine-tools-api.jar” com.google.appengine.tools.admin.AppCfg %*
@echo %JAVA_HOME% in Command Prompt –>
C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jdk1.6.0_26

Please help me find solution for this problem. Thanks.

Following up on yesterday’s post I followed suggestions that it could be related to the Microsoft Windows JVM used by IE.

Microsoft no longer supports the MS JVM and it has become obsolete. There have also been known security issues and it recommended that it be removed and the SUN JVM used as an alternative. Windows XP SP1 does not have the JVM installed.

Uninstalling the Microsoft Java Virtual Machine (JVM)

Click on the Start menu, then select the Run option. In the Open: field type in or copy and paste the following text
RunDll32 advpack.dll,LaunchINFSection java.inf,UnInstall

Select OK.

Select Yes when Microsoft warns you that you can’t run or download items on the World Wide Web. Press the Yes button to initiate the uninstall process of the MS JVM.

Windows will uninstall the files, select YES to restart.

When the computer has restarted delete the follow folders and directories: c:\windows\inf\java.pnf c:\windows\java c:\windows\system32\wjview.exe c:\windows\system32\jview.exe

Click on the Start menu, then select the Run option. In the Open: field type in or copy and paste the following text:

regedit.exe Press the OK button. Navigate to the following keys and delete them:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Java VM HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\AdvancedOptions\JAVA_VM

I then restored my JAVA_HOME, PATH and Netbeans.conf to use my Sun JDK, restarted my workstation and have no further problems using Google App Engine

*If you are using Windows NT or 2000 then you may have to replace all occurrences of c:\windows with c:\winnt in the instructions above.

*If you are using Windows 95, 98, 98SE and ME then you need to replace all occurrences of c:\windows\system32 with c:\windows\system in the instructions above.

*You may need to install the latest SUN Java for your operating system if Windows JVM is all you have on your workstation

I am using NetBean 7.0 & Windows XP
I failed to to a JAVA_HOME error.
I was being told JAVA_HOME c:\program files\java\jre6 was not the JDK and that is true, this is the JRE.

I had the jdk defined in the netbeans.conf
I also defined JAVA_HOME pointing to the JDK.
And added the correct jdk to my PATH.

NetBeans insisted that I was using jre6.

When I renamed my jdk1.6.0_14 jre6 and updated ny netbeans.conf, JAVA_HOME and PATH, I was able to run the app.

Why is JAVA_HOME not resetting?

For win XP trobleshooting, here is mentioned page:
http://code.google.com/p/googleappengine/issues/detail?id=1226

for me worked the solution :

Edit the appcfg as
@set PATH=C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_15\bin
@java -cp “%~dp0\..\lib\appengine-tools-api.jar”
com.google.appengine.tools.admin.AppCfg %*

Suvrat & Manoj Mahajan,
The above error is bcos google tries to get the details of its latest version of GAE and checks with the version in ur System..
But if you hit “http://localhost:8080/” in the browser it will work fine. The version exception can be ignored..

Manoj, if you can post the “jsp compilation error ” then can figure out the actual issue
