Install the EAP 5.x server to path containing space. Start the server using command run.bat -c production -Djboss.messaging.ServerPeerID=0 see log output and you will see the error with parsing jboss.messaging.ServerPeerID value [1] shutdown the server start the server again with run.bat -c production the server terminates by it self after few seconds see server log with error [2] [1] 2014-02-03 01:29:56,129 ERROR
