Thanks for the help Alan. My script works now. My problem was a silly one really. In my build.xml script I had the following line:
<property name="catalina.home" value="c:/catalina"/> However, the value for catalina.home should be: c:/tomcat Anyway, I've also done what you suggested and defined the classpath for ANT only in my build.bat file, and defined my required classpath in my build.xml script.

Seems that these are in servlet.jar. I'd make sure that the CATALINE_HOME points to the correct directory... Can you get your script to echo it's execution? Then we can see the classpath it uses. It seems that the line: set CP=%ANT_HOME%\lib\ant.jar;%CATALINA_HOME%\common\lib\servlet.jar is not correctly pointed as it should find these files in there...

Below are just a few of the cannot resolve symbol problems [javac] Compiling 22 source files to C:\catalina\webapps\fooddoof\WEB-INF\classes [javac] C:\tomcat\fooddoof-app-dev\src\com\fooddoof\actions\FLogonAction.java:3: cannot resolve symbol [javac] symbol : class HttpServletRequest [javac] location: package http [javac] import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest; [javac] ^ [javac] C:\tomcat\fooddoof-app-dev\src\com\fooddoof\actions\FLogonAction.java:4: cannot resolve symbol [javac] symbol : class HttpServletResponse [javac] location: package http [javac] import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse; [javac] ^ [javac] C:\tomcat\fooddoof-app-dev\src\com\fooddoof\actions\FLogonAction.java:5: cannot resolve symbol [javac] symbol : class HttpSession [javac] location: package http [javac] import javax.servlet.http.HttpSession; I've read your message and have a go at doing what you suggested. The build .bat script I mailed worked fine for Tomcat3.2. When I changed to Tomcat4 I just replaced TOMCAT_HOME to CATALINA_HOME thinking that this would work.

This means you can have incompatibilities between these (like different XML parser as I have) and it will work OK. You are passing in CATALINE_HOME, so you can get it all from here... I know this does not solve your problem... Maybe it would be easier if you mentioned some specific 'cannot resolve symbol's?
