Hi Volker,
Thanks a lot for your help. I did as you said. I got few other quirks with zip.exe and other things but but finally managed to get here.
This is what I have got. I am not sure why I am getting a warning for Ant even though I am giving the path to Ant.

I know that I should be getting a winenv.bat file but when I looked into my machine I only have winenvsample.bat. Also can you please let me know what do I do for the last two error message cannot create short path... and path with space...
Thanks for all your help.
