Hi Brian,

If that is exactly the message you're getting, you need a backslash after the F:, and if you're following the Windows convention Program Files has a capital P and F and a space, not an underscore. File path names that include spaces must be enclosed in quotes.

I agree with BJ that a short path without spaces would be simpler and less error-prone.

Cheers

java is case sensitive.
it is best you make a folder F:\jdk\jdk1.6.0_23 to put it in.
JAVA_HOME=F:\jdk\jdk1.6.0_23
