There is a little problem with the jmeter.bat that shift with the last nightly build (29 mai). The last line should be changed to this : %JM_START% %JM_LAUNCH% %JVM_ARGS% %ARGS% -jar "%JMETER_BIN%ApacheJMeter.jar" %JMETER_CMD_LINE_ARGS% Instead of %JM_START% %JM_LAUNCH% %JVM_ARGS% %ARGS% -jar %JMETER_BIN%ApacheJMeter.jar %JMETER_CMD_LINE_ARGS% Because if the %JMETER_BIN% env var contains space, it will fail (it will try to launch the jar file c:/documents, etc). Using "" will correct that thing.
Thanks, applied to 2.1 branch
