http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=4011 JAVA_HOME path mismatch Summary: JAVA_HOME path mismatch Product: Ant Version: 1.4 Platform: PC OS/Version: Windows NT/2K Status: NEW Severity: Critical Priority: Other Component: Core tasks AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hi In the most case under WinNT/2K an executable jdk is registered in the registry. And the JAVA_HOME ( look for java.home in netscapes java console ) is set to x:\Programme\JavaSoft\JRE\1.x.x . That is ok for the most Win PC's that have only a JRE installed. A software distributor then can rely on that, that a minimum requirement is the JAVA_HOME setting, to run its product without a jdk. Now ant cannot run with that JAVA_HOME, why in the JRE there is no javac nor a library tools.jar.(In another environment i can not rely on that, that a jre has a javac or tools.jar, when i copy it in that location). Indeed there is a difference between a JRE and a JDK for Win PC's. In my opinion there must be a JAVA_HOME and a JDK_HOME that there is no more a JAVA_HOME path mismatch.
