Getting "java.io.IOException: Cannot run program java : Create process error=206, The filename or extension is too long" exception

Hi,

I am using your latest version of courgette-jvm 5.8.0 for our parallel run. And I am trying to implement open SSH logic to connect Unix boxes and run the scenarios locally from windows machine. I am able to run the scenarios without this jvm but when I use this getting the below exception and for both the cases I running Gradle command to execute the tests.

Exception which I am getting is ,

Getting "java.io.IOException: Cannot run program java : Create process error=206, The filename or extension is too long" exception

Do we have any solution for this.

Thanks, Karthee

Hello,

• You can try shortening your classpath on Windows: https://github.com/prashant-ramcharan/courgette-jvm/issues/81#issuecomment-670952436

• Use a manifest jar: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/40037487/the-filename-or-extension-is-too-long-error-using-gradle/55589825#55589825

Hi Prashant, Still getting the same issue . I am using Maven to build and run the test. When i execute the runner file through testng.xml without courgette option, it works well. However with Courgette option, it is giving this issue.Please suggest some solution here.

Update: There is a workaround for this in Courgette version 5.9.2 that accepts a custom class path.

See example project here: https://github.com/prashant-ramcharan/courgette-jvm-classpath-example
