It is not a problem with a possibly missing empty line. I found out that the original string calling the JRE is 272 characters long.
If I drop the backwards-compatibility parameter, itīs only 233 chars anymore and works. This makes me think that the command may be up to 255 chars long.
I tried different approaches trying to extend the capability of the command line, especially starting command.com with parameters /U:1024 and/or /L:1024 as proposed by other people. But it had no effect.

So my question would be now: what for do I need the 8.1.6 compat. parameter if I only access databases version 8.1.7 and up? Can I safely omit this parameter?

Thanks for your time and tips,
