Nestor,

 

Simple command to change drives is:

cd d:

 

Try that from command line H: drive.

Janis,

Thanks for your reply!!!

The command works from the D drive command line, my default drive is the H
drive.  
>From the H drive the command does not work.

How do I tell windows to change to the D drive before running the command?

Thanks,

Néstor :-)

Nestor,


1. check if Java is set as env variable in cmd
Path

then
java -version
if no response then you need to set it

2. After java path set try to run the same thing from the command line and
see if it works.

Regards,
Janis

I want to create a script that runs a java command at boot.   I was told
that I need to add the script  to my "Scheduled Tasks".
This is the command I want to be run when the machine boots
java -jar D:\Inetpub\wwwroot\apache-solr-nightly\example\start.jar

I created a script start_solr.bat to do the following:
cd "D:\Inetpub\wwwroot\apache-solr-nightly\example\"
java -jar D:\Inetpub\wwwroot\apache-solr-nightly\example\start.jar

But my script FAILS because it does not know anything about the D drive
when I create the start_solr.bat script as follows:
d:
cd "D:\Inetpub\wwwroot\apache-solr-nightly\example\"
java -jar D:\Inetpub\wwwroot\apache-solr-nightly\example\start.jar

FAILS again!  It does not know what "d:" means.   How do I tell the script
to switch to the D drive

*What is the proper way to run my java command via a script or how
do I tell the script that it need to be on the D drive before it runs
the java command.*

Thanks,

Néstor :-)
