Hi Benjamin. I think you're right. I found a bunch of ant.jar's on my machine (time to clean-up!). I need to do a good clean-up job on my machine to make sure I'm running the ant that I think I am (jakarta-ant-1.4.1).
Thanks for pointing that out. Hi Jeff, I just upgraded last week to Emacs 21.2.1 . I haven't had any problems at all with it. It doesn't seem to have any additional features, only some minor bug fixes. Still, I like to live on the cutting edge :-) Jack. -----Original Message----- From: Benjamin Menasha [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, April 02, 2002 9:33 AM To: Jack Donohue Cc: JDE Mailing List Subject: Re: Ant server problem After reading your message, got the same error just a minuite ago! ant 1.4 supports path tags within targets while 1.3 seems to complain. You are most likely running ant 1.3 in your ant server and 1.4 on the command line. -b Jack Donohue <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes: > Sorry.
