WebSphere® servers
may not start when using a workspace that begins with a backslash, for example \workspacea or \myworkspaces\work1
If you have already started the development environment with a workspace
that begins with a backslash, follow these steps to allow the WebSphere servers
to start:
- Shut down the development environment.
- Restart the development environment (use the -setworkspace flag
if you had previously chosen to hide the workspace selection dialog box on
startup).
- When prompted for the workspace location, add the drive letter
to the beginning of the workspace path. For example, \workspace1 would
become C:\workspace1
- You can now start your existing WebSphere server.
