bash: cd: /tools/openlaszlo/OpenLaszlo Server 3.3.3/bin: No such file or directory

now if i try to cd to tools/openlaszlo/"OpenLaszlo Server 3.3.3" from the command line, I can do this all day .. just not with variable ( cd $LASZLO_COMPILER_HOME )
Did you try using quotes around the variable?
Code:
cd "$LASZLO_COMPILER_HOME"

If you use quotes around the variable then it should work
