I am attempting to run the CQ5 quickstart by both double-clicking the jar (in my case, C:\tools\cq\demo\cq-wcm-quickstart-5.4.0.jar) and launching from command prompt (C:\tools\cq\demo>java -Xmx384M -jar cq-wcm-quickstart-5.4.0.jar). The launcher app eventually times out and displays "Server not ready, browser not launched".

The login page (http://localhost:4502/login.html) displays...

Service Unavailable

In the server.log, I see…

Then a bunch more errors "ERROR: Error starting slinginstall".

I’ve tried the “publisher” and “author” as well as the “generic” quick-start configurations and all fail the same way at the same spot.  Here is the sling.properties file:

A problem with my version of Java, maybe?

C:\tools\cq\demo>java -version

java version "1.7.0_01"

Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.7.0_01-b08)

  Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 21.1-b02, mixed mode, sharing)

The crx (http://localhost:4502/crx) and cq admin (http://localhost:4502/admin) sites seem to work.  But, the launchpad (http://localhost:4502/bin/login.html or http://localhost:4502/system/console) doesn’t.

Thanks in advance for any help!
