Thanks able to access the document now. Document http://www7b.software.ibm.com/wsdd/library/techarticles/0203_searle/searle1.html has ended up confusing me.
I am new to both ant and to webSphere, I managed to get ant within the websphere environment, but cant not get it running outside. I have listed all the steps I took below. I would be grateful if someone could point out where I have gone wrong in setting up the environment variables. Set up your PATH to use the internal JRE: set PATH=x:\Ws_installdir\plugins\com.ibm.etools.server.jdk\bin;%PATH% Problem number 1) I don't have the com.ibm.etools.server.jdk path in my WebSphere Installation. I do have two plugin directories. C:\IBM\WebSpere studio\wstools\eclipse\plugins C:\IBM\WebSpere studio\eclipse\plugins I have three internal JRE directories . C:\IBM\WebSpere studio\eclipse\jre\bin C:\IBM\WebSpere studio\runtimes\base_v5\java\bin C:\IBM\WebSpere studio\runtimes\base_v5\java\jre\bin Set up your CLASSPATH with the Ant JAR and the Xerces parser JAR (this command must be all on one line): set CLASSPATH=x:\Ws_installdir\plugins\org.eclipse.ant.core\ant.jar; x:\Ws_installdir\plugins\org.apache.xerces\xerces.jar;%CLASSPATH% Set up your ANT.HOME environment variable: set ANT.HOME=x:\Ws_installdir\plugins\org.eclipse.core Problem number 2 I don't have a directory or a jar called org.eclipse.core, I do have a whole series of files such as org.eclipse.core.boot_2.0.2, org.eclipse.core.resources_2.0.1 I guess that ANT.HOME is a special websphere command and picks up org.eclipse.core from somewhere. But I am not sure which plugin directory to use. I ran a series of tests of differing combinations and got the same error message : No JAXP compliant XML parser found. I searched my websphere directory for any mention of JAXP there was none. It must be set in one of the org.eclipse.core or tools directory, but I don't know which one and the document does not say. I don't think I need to download the JAXM parser it must be within the WebSphere environment somewhere, I ma just not sure how to access it. Thanks for any Help Tony Test 1 Set ANT.HOME = C:\IBM\WebSpere studio\eclipse\plugins\org.eclipse.core JRE = C:\IBM\WebSpere studio\eclipse\jre\bin Error Message: No JAXP compliant XML parser found. Test 2 ANT.HOME = C:\IBM\WebSpere studio\eclipse\plugins\org.eclipse.core jre = C:\IBM\WebSpere studio\runtimes\base_v5\java\bin Error Message: No JAXP compliant XML parser found. Test 3 set ANT.HOME = C:\IBM\WebSpere studio\eclipse\plugins\org.eclipse.core JRE = C:\IBM\WebSpere studio\runtimes\base_v5\java\jre\bin Error Message: No JAXP compliant XML parser found. Test 4 ANT.HOME = C:\IBM\WebSpere studio\wstools\eclipse\plugins\org.eclipse.core JRE = C:\IBM\WebSpere studio\runtimes\base_v5\java\jre\bin Error Message: No JAXP compliant XML parser found.
