I'm on a windows server. I have 3 environment variables -
ANT_HOME
JINTEGRA_HOME
Path
Path includes references to ANT_HOME and JINTEGRA_HOME, as well as other variables like JAVA_HOME. When I open a command prompt, all of the paths (including those referencing JAVA_HOME) resolve, but the ANT_HOME and JINTEGRA_HOME variables do not. If I go to the environment variable window, open the Path variable as if I'm going to edit it, but then don't edit it, and close it again and then close and reopen my command prompt, echo %Path% shows the correct path with ANT_HOME and JINTEGRA_HOME resolved.
Know what I mean? Does this make sense? In other words, ANT_HOME and JINTEGRA_HOME are never properly added to my path unless I edit the environment variable before opening a command line. If I don't edit the environment variable first, I get something like:
> echo %Path%
c:\blah\bin;c:\program files\programiinstalled\bin;%ANT_HOME%\bin;%JINTEGRA_HOME%\bin
See?
It really sucks. I've tried googling it. I've tried ripping the path apart, but if you are familiar with windows you know there's a LOT of things in that variable.
This article is exactly what I'm experiencing, except that his solution isn't going to work for me because this is on a server and I just can't have this going on.
Has anyone ever seen this before?
