    Hide
    The Pentaho BI Server does not run when placed in a path containing spaces. catalina.out will show the error:

      "Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Edition"

    which doesn't give much information about what the problem is.

    To reproduce:

    1. extract the biserver
    2. rename the biserver directory to something with spaces, like "Pentaho 2 BI Server"
    3. cd into that directory
    4. run start-pentaho.sh

    The result is that Pentaho won't run, and the aforementioned exception error will show in the log.

    Rename the directory to something without spaces, and the problem disappears.

This is a linux tomcat bug. Version 5.5.26 (which we package in the archive platform download) fails to start when tomcat lives in a dir with spaces (tested in linux). 5.5.27 solves this problem and starts fine.
