'Java' is not recognized as an internal or external command

When I try to run the java -cp h2-1.4.190.jar org.h2.tools.Server command in the terminal it tells me that 'Java' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.

How can I fix this?

Based on the error message, I'm going to guess you're running on Windows, which I'm not very experienced with, but based on the message, I think you either need to:

  • Make sure you use a lowercase j for java instead of a capital J for Java
  • Make sure Java is installed on your system, and in a path that your particular shell knows about
