HI,
I am executing the tstamp before executing the cvs tag , but the mistake I
made was to set the property before doing teh tstamp thing which is not
normal I feel.
However, If I do put the property after the tstamp stuff, it gives me an
error which is something like ...
"[cvs] cvs [tag aborted]: no such host c". I figured out that this is
happening even outside ANT , because I have to traverse one directory lower
into client module which I want to Tag.If I do the traversal it just works
out fine.
Now I am trying to figure a way to do just that in Ant.
Is there any other way other than using exec and then a change directory ?
Regards,
Viraj Purang

This generally happens when the property doesn't have a value. My guess
is that you are not running the <tstamp/> task prior to your cvs task.
Try to ensure that tstamp gets executed as part of a "prepare" target
that is listed in the "depends" clause of all my other tasks.
