I'm not 100% certain of this as you did not define more explicitly what 
you mean by "doesn't work", but one of the biggest "mistakes"(?) I see 
people make with Ant is using 'value' on <property> when you're refering 
to files/directories.  'location' is what you want.  I would recommend 
(and this doesn't appear to matter in your case, but it is a best 
practice) that you switch your property assignments.

I also see you using $BEA_DIR.  I think you mean ${BEA_DIR}.
