I'm trying to run the sample cordapp described here
The problem is that I am unable to deploy the nodes when I run the gradlew.bat deployNodes command. I'm repeatedly getting the following error:
Node in Notary exited with 1 when generating its node-info - see logs
Some information about my environment
Corda Version: v3.2
Gradle Version: 4.4.1
Java Version: 1.8.0_191
OS: Windows
The output when I run the command with the --stacktrace flag is:
org.gradle.api.tasks.TaskExecutionException: Execution failed for task ':deployNodes'.

Also tried to run java -jar corda.jar -Dcapsule.log=verbose from the notary node folder and got the following:
CAPSULE EXCEPTION: Illegal char <"> at index 0: "C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_191 (for stack trace, run with -Dcapsule.log=verbose)
USAGE: <options> corda.jar
Actions:
capsule.version - Prints the capsule and application versions.
capsule.modes - Prints all available capsule modes.
capsule.jvms - Prints a list of all JVM installations found.
capsule.help - Prints this help message.
Options:
capsule.mode=<value> - Picks the capsule mode to run.
capsule.reset - Resets the capsule cache before launching. The capsule to be re-extracted (if applicable), and other possibly cached files will be recreated.
capsule.log=<value> (default: quiet) - Picks a log level. Must be one of none, quiet, verbose, or debug.
capsule.java.home=<value> - Sets the location of the Java home (JVM installation directory) to use; If 'current' forces the use of the JVM that launched the capsule.
capsule.java.cmd=<value> - Sets the path to the Java executable to use.
capsule.jvm.args=<value> - Sets additional JVM arguments to use when running the application.
I'm really confused and any help would be great.
Thanks in advance!
So, after a lot of fiddling around I managed to find the root cause.
The issue was with the PATH environment variable. It contained the values inside double quotes.
That was causing the Illegal char " at index 0 exception when I was trying to run the corda.jar file from the node folder.
Once the quotes were removed, it worked fine.
