Description
The configurator calls java.io.File.toURL() to convert the file references to URLs. This method doesn't convert spaces and other illegal characters properly so a malformed url is generated if these characters are in the path for this file. This is known problem in java and file.toURI().toURL() is the suggested workaround.
This caused a problem for me because rmi treats UrlClassLoaders specially and turns the URLs into a space separated list for the codebase to load classes from but since the urls have spaces in them already it caused rmi to fail.
The easy work around is to not have spaces (or any other illegal character) on you file path but using the java recomended workaround would be better.

I was also affected by this bug and am currently using a locally patched version of the Classworlds HEAD which I've labelled 1.2-SNAPSHOT. I've attached a patch that uses the toURI().toURL() pattern which resolved the issue for me.
