Hi Simon, Try this: - Unzip jakarta-ant-1.5.1-bin.zip into C:\ - Change the name of the new created folder (jakarta-ant-1.5.1) to ant (this is to avoid long file names) - Set PATH to C:\ant\bin - Don't set ANT_HOME environment variable (Ant will detect automatically) - Don't set anything related to Ant into CLASSPATH
--Thai -----Original Message----- From: Chappell, Simon P [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, January 28, 2003 3:47 AM To: Ant User Mailing List (E-mail) Subject: Ant 1.5.1 on Windows ME I am successfully and happily running ant on Windows 2K, Linux and Mac OS X, but now that my wife is surrendering my Windows ME laptop back to me for portable tinkering, I am having great frustrations getting ant 1.5.1 to work on it. With JDK 1.4.1 and 1.3.1, I get the "ANT_HOME is set incorrectly or ant could not be located. Please set ANT_HOME" message. I have both JAVA_HOME and ANT_HOME set and the appropriate entries added to PATH. I run without a CLASSPATH environment variable, does that make a difference on Windows ME? I read through a bunch of the ant mailing list archive, but the only thing I could find was a refernce to a trailing backslash that one person had on their ANT_HOME environment variable. I have checked that and my environment variables look correct. Because it's the only personal Windows box that I have and I have a couple of games that I still like to play on it, I'd rather not reformat and install Linux, but if necessary, I will. Any and all help appreciated. Simon ----------------------------------------------------------------- Simon P. Chappell [EMAIL PROTECTED] Java Programming Specialist www.landsend.com Lands' End, Inc.
