You need to edit the Application.bat file so the program can run properly. Open the Application.bat in notepad and make the following changes: Change the line to point instead to where the Application.bat is at. set ProgramDir=C:\jbproject\ABC\ Note: There is some problem with long directory name. If possible, place the unzipped file in directory closer to the root directory. If long directory name has to be used, use the 8.3 version of the directory name. e.g: D:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Desktop\ABC\ is equivalent to D:\Docume~1\Admini~1\Desktop\ABC\ And change the line to point to your local copy of the Jena libraries. set JenaLibDir=D:\JenaAPI\Jena-1.2.0\lib\ If you don't have jdk in your path variable, you will need to include it in the path varaible as follows: set path=%path%;c:\JDK_DIRECTORY If all goes well, you should now be able to double-click on Application.bat to launch the program. There are some options you can change in the config.xml. Open config.xml, and read the comments to see what exactly do the tags do.
