Re: [Squirrel-sql-users] Could not find the main class. Programwill exit.

[<JIM...@pa...>]

Thanks Rob.  Well, that cleared up the error message but now I just get a
quick open and close of the dos window without any error messages.
Any other ideas I might try?  Is there a place that has a list of the
variables that are being passed to the .bat file?

Thanks again.

Hi Jim,

I believe this is most likely due to your CLASSPATH environment
variable containing an unquoted path with a space in it.  In most
cases that have been reported, it will be something like C:\Program
Files\some\path\to\library.zip.  Ideally, each path element in a
Windows CLASSPATH should be quoted, as in :

set CLASSPATH="C:\Program Files\some\path\to\library.zip";"C:\Program
Files\some\path\to\library2.zip";"C:\Program
Files\some\path\to\library3.zip"

If that is not the case, and you don't want to mess with environment
variables, then the file squirrel-sql.bat, that launches SQuirreL
contains the following at line 37:

SET SQUIRREL_CP=%TMP_CP%;%CLASSPATH%

Simply replace this line with:

SET SQUIRREL_CP=%TMP_CP%

I think this was intended originally to include JDBC drivers that
happened to be in the CLASSPATH.  Given the number of people that have
had trouble with this, I am tempted to remove it.  In any case, let us
know if that get's you beyond this issue.

Rob
