When I setup the load test on a client I receive this error:

Tuning: -Xmx3253M -XX:+UseG1GC -XX:MaxGCPauseMillis=100 -server -Djava.net.pref erIPv4Stack=true -Duser.language=en -Duser.country=US -Dfile.encoding=Cp1252

‘""C:\Program’ is not recognized as an internal or external command,

operable program or batch file.

Can anyone explain why I’m getting this error

here is my test.xml code:

To start the test on the client computer, open a command prompt, change directory to the **[install-dir]/bin** folder, and execute the following command:

Windows

```auto
performance.bat live

```

Linux

```auto
./performance.sh live

```

You can also run Wowza in stand-alone mode [install-dir]/bin/startup.bat|startup.sh to view the output in the console. This is helpful when troubleshooting.
