I am using SpringToolSuite 3.3.0 and this is a desktop application in java. I use to run my project from "Run -> Run configuration" . My project was running OK for some time. But from last few days, when I try to run my project using "Run -> Run configuration-> Main tab -> Run", a pop up comes up saying

Exception occurred executing command line. Cannot run program "C:\Program Files(X86)\jdk1.6.0_31\bin\javaw.exe" (in directory "C:\projects\arm\src\arm-positionBuilder"): CreateProcess error=206, The filename or extension is too long

I look for this issue on this website but could not found solution for it. I am using Maven for build. Please advise what changes should I do in project configuration to resolve it.

  • Sounds like a Windows bug. In any case, both your JDK and STS are extremely out of date; I suggest upgrading both as a first step. – chrylis -cautiouslyoptimistic- Oct 15 '14 at 02:59
  • how hard did you look? Googling your error message the first hit is to this web site, and specifically this question which is exactly your problem: http://stackoverflow.com/q/10519558/1570834. – DB5 Oct 15 '14 at 06:22

It would be appreciated by everyone if you could [accept](http://stackoverflow.com/help/accepted-answer) any of the answers that actually solved your problem (you are allowed to accept your own answers). – DB5 Oct 15 '14 at 06:25
  • Maybe the command line for Windows that gets generated behind the scenes is too long for the Windows limits. Did you try the workaround with setting the classpath via an environment variable? – Martin Lippert Oct 16 '14 at 12:04
  • My project is using Maven Dependencies which has so many files in it. Now in my project, This "Maven Dependencies" is included in classpath through Run->Run Configurations->classpath. I believe this "Maven Dependencies" makes my classpath very long. Is there any way I can include "Maven Dependencies" in classpath and stil my classpath length is short. – Vaibhav Oct 19 '14 at 13:10
