Description

I thought I spotted some unquoted $SOLR_TIP references in bin/solr with 5.0.0, prompting me to test:

$ mv solr-5.0.0 solr-5.0.0-with' space'
$ cd solr-5.0.0-with' space'
$ ./bin/solr -f
./bin/solr: line 1161: [: too many arguments
./bin/solr: line 1187: [: /Users/mak/Downloads/solr-5.0.0-with: binary operator expected
./bin/solr: line 1194: [: /Users/mak/Downloads/solr-5.0.0-with: binary operator expected
./bin/solr: line 1327: cd: /Users/mak/Downloads/solr-5.0.0-with: No such file or directory

Starting Solr on port 8983 from /Users/mak/Downloads/solr-5.0.0-with space/server

Error: Could not find or load main class space.server.logs.solr_gc.log
