Description

This is a problem uncovered while running the latest (1.0-20060307.100605-1) version of the webstart plugin, which uses the jar plugin to sign jars. During the signing stage maven fails with
[debug] jarsigner executable=[C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.5.0_06\jre\..\bin\jarsigner.exe]
[debug] Signing JAR in-place (overwritting original JAR).
[warn] 'C:\Program' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
[warn] operable program or batch file.

(full trace is attached).

It looks as though the plexus utils classes are tokenizing the path to the jarsigner executable wrongly due to it containing spaces.
