Description

Steps to reproduce:

1. Download / extract zip: https://activemq.apache.org/components/artemis/download/
2. run "bin/artemis create" giving it a target path which has a space e.g.:
   1. ./bin/artemis create --user default --password default --require-login /c/Program\ Files/artemis
3. Install and try and start the service
   1. "C:\Program Files\artemis\bin\artemis-service.exe"install
   2. "C:\Program Files\artemis\bin\artemis-service.exe" start
4. Notice the web console does not come up and there are errors in the logs (as shown in attachment artemis-service.out.log)

 

I believe the problem lies in line 29 of the generated artemis-service.xml (attached), which has a unnecessarily double-escaped space character (%%20) for the value of ARTEMIS_INSTANCE_ETC_URI.
