Description

The startup script bin/startup.sh has windows-style carriage return/linefeeds, so it doesn't work. It leads to very obscure error messages and no small ammount of frustration trying to get the thing to work. The fix is simple though, run:

dos2unix startup.sh

This fixes it.

There's probably an ant task to help us, so we don't have to remember every time: http://ant.apache.org/manual/CoreTasks/fixcrlf.html should maybe do the trick?

I dont see any of the dos LF characters in the file.

I'll see what I can do about setting +x permissions. I'm not sure how SVN and tar etc... handle this.

These issue has been in resolved state for at least one month (quite a bit, a lot more than one month). Batch transitioning them to closed state
