&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;New page&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;I was about ready to pull my hair out today when I couldn&amp;#039;t figure out why my startup script wasn&amp;#039;t letting me pass options to Java in cygwin.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Here&amp;#039;s what I was trying to do:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;geshi lang=&amp;quot;bash&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
JAVA_CMD=&amp;quot;$JAVA_HOME/bin/java&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
export JAVA_HOME&lt;br /&gt;
JAVA_OPTS=&amp;quot;-ea -server&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
export JAVA_OPTS&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
# ...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
$JAVA_CMD&amp;quot; ${JAVA_OPTS} -Dbash=fun com.MyClass&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/geshi&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Whenever I would start my script, I would get this error:&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;geshi lang=&amp;quot;bash&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Unrecognized option: -ea -server&lt;br /&gt;
Could not create the Java virtual machine.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/geshi&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If I changed JAVA_OPTS to only &amp;quot;-ea&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;-server&amp;quot; it worked fine.  I tried every combination of quoting my command, and I could not get it to work.  I thought I was going crazy, because I&amp;#039;ve used this pattern in a dozen or so scripts, and the default JBoss script uses the same.  Then, I found the section of the [http://www.gnu.org/software/bash/manual/bashref.html#SEC33 Bash manual] on word splitting.    I did a quick grep, and found sure enough, someone thought to change this inside the script.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;geshi&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
# Unset Intercommand separator&lt;br /&gt;
IFS=&lt;br /&gt;
export IFS&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/geshi&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
