Hi all. This is my first post here. :-)

I got a similar symptom, Google'ed around, and knew that
widely-said-but-not-technically-backed-up spaces-in-installed-path answers.

But I'm not convinced (hey I've never ever reinstalled anything on this
Windows 2000 Server, and trying to keep it!).

I could figure out that the error comes from $(NTMAKEENV)\makefile.new line
3750-3751:
        {$(MAKEDIR)}.java{$(O)\}.class:
            $(JVC) $(JVC_FLAGS) $<
If I commented these 2 lines out, BUILD.EXE worked as I expected.

My guess is that $(MAKEDIR) is expanded into a string containing `:' (e.g.
C:\Documents and Settings\foo\My Documents\...), which causes NMAKE.EXE
confuse what's the target/source part.

Anyway I edited the lines as follows mimicing other suffix rule definitions.
 Nothing problematic has happened to me. (I don't code Java at all...)
        {}.java{$(O)\}.class:
            $(JVC) $(JVC_FLAGS) $<

HTH,
Masao
