I downloaded the build(version 2.3) and ant (Version 1.5.4), set ant_home and java_home(version 1.4.2), then run ant
ant

after a few seconds there was a complaint that
etc/dbforms_manifest
did not exist so I created an empty file to see if I could coax the build further.


The build then got a bit further then complained about file not found when zipping/unzipping, among other things.
[java] Exception in thread "main" java.util.zip.ZipException: No such file or directory
[java] at java.util.zip.ZipFile.open(Native Method)
[java] at java.util.zip.ZipFile.<init>(ZipFile.java:112)

[java] at java.util.jar.JarFile.<init>(JarFile.java:55)
[java] Java Result: 1
[echo] end of xsl translation


I looked through the readme but could not find the files specified in the source (maybe they are supposed to be built by ant?
