Exceptions in rmid and lookup service

Posted by Annapurna on June 06, 2001 at 12:17 AM

I am working on windows 98 with jdk1.3, jini1_0_1 and jstk1_0_1
I get the following exceptions when i start the lookup service.

C:\jini1_0_1>java -Djava.security.policy=c:\jini1_0_1\example\lookup\policy.all
-jar C:\jini1_0_1\lib\reggie.jar http://130.184.172.9:8081/reggie-dl.jar C:\jini

C:\jini1_0_1>

I start the rmid using a batch file from the location c:\jini1_0_1\
and the batch file for rmid is

rmid -J-Djava.security.policy=c:\jini1_0_1\example\lookup\policy.all
when i add the log file
rmid -J-Djava.security.policy=c:\jini1_0_1\example\lookup\policy.all -log c:\tmp\rmid.log
it gives a IOException stating "unable to create log file".
Could anyone help me in finding the problem.
Thanks
