If you want to use a special character or a space character in your project name, you must ensure that the context root of your project does not contain a special character or space. To do this, select the navigator view in the WebFacing perspective, right click on the project, select properties, and edit the context root in the Web Project Settings page. This is required if you want to run in the WebSphere® v5.1, v6.0 or v6.1 Test Environments.
