Description of problem:
When installing on a Windows NTFS system, there is a standard file path length limitation of 260 characters, which equates to 256 usable characters for the actual path (260 less 4 characters for the drive letter, colon, backslash, and a terminating null character at the end of the path).  This is documented in the "Maximum Path Length Limitation" section of the MSDN article [1] linked below.

Depending on the user's environment, they may exceed this amount by installing to a subdirectory of a drive.  For example, the below path is 242 characters, so would exceed the path length limitation when installed to a directory such as "d:\middleware\management\jboss\", which would push the path length to 273 characters.

This may cause exceptions when attempting to unzip the server installation, or may cause other issues later such as an inability to open/copy/modify/rename files
