Hi, At first glance this sounds like a set up problem. Or perhaps a bug in windows 7 or subversion. Perhaps you've already done the following, but these are the steps I can think of: - Perhaps there's a bug in the subversion version you're using on windows 7? Run svnversion manually from a command line window. If you still have the older system available, compare the result in both systems. - Create a small .xml that only does the ant call to exec svnversion, and run that with ant -verbose. (You can copy the relevant section from <trunk>/build.xml). - Run the ant with -verbose. - If the above give no hints, run the full build with the property printCompilerProperties=true. Perhaps it gives some clue as to what's happening. Again, if you have the older system still available, compare. HTH, Myrna
