Thanks for the idea (good idea) but it didn't help. I
added the pathelement for the tools.jar in the
classpath for the taskdef for cactus. Here it is:
<!-- Define the Cactus tasks -->
<taskdef resource="cactus.tasks">
<classpath>
<pathelement location="${cactus.jar}"/>
<pathelement
location="${ext_libdir}/cactus-ant-1.6.1.jar"/>
<pathelement
location="c:\j2sdk1.4.2_04\lib\tools.jar"/>
<path refid="cactusdeps"/>
</classpath>
</taskdef>
But I noticed 2 other interesting things in the error
output. One is that the error is in the
ContainerRunner. Does this mean that however the
ContainerRunner works, it is a separate classpath for
the server that is not finding the tools.jar?
Here's the error excerpt:
[cactus] Couldn't find tools.jar (needed for JSP
compilation)
[cactus] You must either set location or path on
<pathelement>
.
.
.
[cactus] at
org.apache.cactus.integration.ant.container.ContainerRunner$1.run(ContainerRunner.java:140)
Here's my test target:
<target name="test" depends="test.prepare">
<cactus
warfile="${builddir}/${distfilename}-test.war"
fork="yes">
<classpath>
<path refid="test.build.classpath" />
<path refid="cactusdeps"/>
</classpath>
<containerset timeout="100000">
<tomcat4x if="cactus.home.tomcat4x"
dir="${cactus.home.tomcat4x}"
output="${testlogdir}/tomcat4x/tomcat4x.out"
todir="${testlogdir}/tomcat4x"
port="${cactus.port}"/>
</containerset>
<formatter type="brief" usefile="false"/>
<formatter type="plain"/>
<formatter type="xml"/>
<test name="${package}.AllTests"
todir="${testlogdir}"/>
</cactus>
</target>
'cactus.home.tomcat4x' is defined earlier as
cactus.home.tomcat4x=C:/jakarta-tomcat-4.1.30
What looks weird to me is that it's resolving the
container directory into a Win2000 local user
directory. So I get the above error with the not
finding the tools.jar, then it times out waiting for
the container to start. Is that normal? It seems like
when I run it from the command line, it finds the
tomcat install and starts it just fine.
