Hey,
Ant has a bug when dealing with relative paths, so install jboss under a
2-level-from-root directory (such as C:\Jim\JBoss, instead of C:\JBoss) or
use absolute paths in build.bat.
Search also the mailing list about this topic, you're not the first, and
many provided solutions for that.
HTH,
Simon
