What were you trying to do?
Run the java interpreter from the java locker.
What's wrong:
The wrapper script uses $* instead of "$@". This results in arguments
containing white space being split before they reach the java
interpreter.
E.g.
java Foo " foo bar "
results in passing args = { "foo", "bar" } to the program.
What should have happened:
Should have got args = { " foo bar " }
Please describe any relevant documentation references:
