  • State changed from “new” to “confirmed”

  Jetbrains also have this issue with teamcity, according to this stack overflow thread:

  http://stackoverflow.com/questions/13913196/file-separator-java-7-o...

  The conclusion there is that it's a bug in the JDK version 7 update 10. We can work around this bug in Play, in the mean time, you have two options:

  1. Downgrade to JDK 1.7.0_09
  2. Don't use play start. Windows is not officially supported as a production platform for Play yet anyway.

  Another workaround I just found is:

  running "play dist"

  create a start.bat with:

  @echo off
  setlocal
  set p=%~dp0
  set p=%p:\=/%
  java %* -cp "%p%/lib/*;" play.core.server.NettyServer %p%
  

  and start it through the bat file

  but that involves unzipping of the created .zip first.

  • State changed from “confirmed” to “invalid”

  Either use Java 1.7.0_09, or wait for Oracle to fix the issue. We can't help JDK bugs in Play.

  FYI still a problem in 1.7.0_15.

  Another workaround I found is to run this...

  play -Dfile.separator=\/ start

  This isn't a bug of the VM and wo't be fixed by Orcacle. The JVM seems to strip slashes from the passed properties.

  How is it not a bug in the JVM? The behaviour didn't happen before 1.7.0_09, and what if you want to pass properties with trailing slashes? This behaviour doesn't happen on other platforms. It's definitely a bug in the JVM.
