Hm. This is perhaps a borderline scenario but I found the reason. Remember I was using "build webapp", *without* the "-Dinclude.webapp.libs=true" property setting included on the commandline (nor in %ANT_OPTS%), however. Doing this, a 'lib' directory containing all the required jars is not created, still ManifestToolTask wants to traverse that directory to build Manifest.mf Upon accessing the unexisting 'lib' directory, ManifestToolTask fails. When creating the directory manually inside the build/cocoon/webapp/WEB-INF directory prior to building, all goes well. If this is not a borderline scenario (not sure), some additional checking should be done in ManifestToolTask, I guess. I was just using "build webapp" to quickly check if my fresh check-out of Cocoon CVS was OK. </Steven> --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, email: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
