The base problem for this (in my case) was java being installed in the c:\program files (x86) directory. This seems to be a bug within the TeamCity agent install files and an issue has been already been raised with jetbrains - https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/TW-42297.

My solution was to create a symbolic link from the c:\program files directory to the c:\program files (x86) directory. Here's the command:

mklink /d "c:\program files\java" "c:\program files (x86)\java"

I also had to create the environment variable JRE_HOME and set it to the new symlink C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.8.0_51".

It only works with JDK, This is a bug in TeamCity. I removed JRE and installed JDK and now it works fine
