Doc Text:
This bug was actually caused by three separate issues. First, modifications made to the SHARE variable in condor_config caused errors when trying to run java detection on windows. The fix was to modify the installer to update the variable during installation. The second issue was JAVA_MAXHEAP_ARGUMENT= -Xmx causes errors when running on against newer versions of Oracle Java. Upstream fix was to remove the parameter entirely and allow args via traditional methods. Finally, the last issue was a bug caused by the addition of new classads, the compatibility layer was failing to parse attributes which ended in a "\". Upstream fix was to modify the compatibility layer to handle such cases.

Comment 2 Matthew Farrellee 2011-04-01 12:43:06 UTC 
Looks like a classpath issue
Comment 3 Timothy St. Clair 2011-04-01 16:05:53 UTC 
There are 3 issues

1.) SHARE : is not set properly 
2.) JAVA_MAXHEAP_ARGUMENT= -Xmx : causes issues on new versions of Java for windows
3.) 04/01/11 10:54:40 failed to create classad; bad expr = JavaIoTmpdir = "C:\Windows\TEMP\"

The first 2 are installer issues, the last is a TBD.
