It looks in ${java.home}/lib and ${java.home}/../lib, where ${java.home} 
is the value of the "java.home" property as returned by 
System.getProperty("java.home").

Probably, you're getting the error message because the java.exe command 
you are running resides in the JRE, which on Windows is installed in 
addition to the JDK (this is despite the fact that the JRE is also 
bundled *inside* the JDK anyway. I've never understood this. You 
effectively end up with two copies of the JRE, and three "java.exe" 
files - one in each of the JREs and one in the JDK).

If you specified the full path to one of the java.exe's inside the JDK, 
the warning message would go away.
