Ian, The documentation suggested that building nant was the best way to see if nant was working. Is this no longer the case?
from http://nant.sourceforge.net/help/introduction/fog0000000041.html 1. Download the latest release <http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=31650> . 2. Unzip the distribution into a new folder. 3. Open a command prompt and change the directory to the folder where NAnt was installed. 4. Type bin\nant to build NAnt. 5. Look at the NAnt.build <http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/nant/nant/NAnt.build?rev=HEAD&content-type=text/vnd.viewcvs-markup> file to see how it works. -Scott -----Original Message----- From: Ian MacLean [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Fri 8/1/2003 11:45 PM To: Cohen, Noah (CA - Ottawa) Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [Nant-users] nant-0.8.3-rc2 does not build? Hmm - the problem is that the test folder is not included in the rc2 distribution thus explaining why it can't find tests\NAnt.Core\NAnt.Core.build. However it has already built everything its only the tests that don't build. If you look in the newly created \build\nant-0.8.3.50100-debug\bin folder you'll see everything. The other question is why are you trying to build when the binaries already exist under the \bin directory ? including the nantcontrib tasks.
