Tomcat is not running even though JAVA_HOME path is correct

Question

When I am trying to run tomcat using startup.bat I get the following error,

The JAVA_HOME environment variable is not defined correctly
This env         


        

Answer 1

For reference for me with Atlassian's Bamboo the issue was because I had wrapped the command in speech marks

So

SET JRE_HOME="C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.8.0_121"

Was wrong, where as the right version is

SET JRE_HOME=C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.8.0_121

This gave me the error message

Files\Java\jre1.8.0_121"" was unexpected at this time.
