${tomcat.source} is the location of the tomcat source code that you checked out either with svn using: svn checkout https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/tomcat/trunk tomcat-trunk or with git using git clone https://github.com/apache/tomcat tomcat-trunk or similar. So ${tomcat.source} might be one of the following: C:\repos\tomcat-trunk D:\projects\tomcat-trunk ~/repos/tomcat/trunk /x1/apache/tomcat-trunk etc. The file build.properties needs to be created in the root of the tomcat source tree. So in the examples above, it should be created in the tomcat-trunk directory. i.e.: C:\repos\tomcat-trunk\build.properties D:\projects\tomcat-trunk\build.properties ~/repos/tomcat/trunk/build.properties /x1/apache/tomcat-trunk/build.properties Mark --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@tomcat.apache.org
