Issue
Error: "%1 is not a valid win32 application" when starting RSA RADIUS Server 6.1
Cause
The reinstallation of RSA RADIUS Server 6.1 Powered by Funk Steel-Belted RADIUS on RSA SecurID Appliance 2.0 writes an entry to the registry as follows without the necessary quotations:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\RSA RADIUS Server

ImagePath      REG_EXPAND_SZ     C:\Program Files\RSA Security\RSA Radius\Service\radius.exe sbr.xml
Resolution

To correct this issue, edit the registry entry HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\RSA RADIUS Server and change the ImagePath datafield to read as follows:

"C:\Program Files\RSA Security\RSA Radius\Service\radius.exe" sbr.xml


Workaround
Uninstalled and reinstalled RSA Steel Belted RADIUS on RSA SecurID Appliance 2.0
