Jack, Before sending my previous email: I deleted all files on my computer with any references to nutch (EXCEPT for one old nutch file in tomcat\work\catalina\... could this be the problem? I'm deleting as we speak).
Then I downloaded the nightly build from http://lucene.apache.org/release/nightly entitled nutch-2005-06-06.tar.gz I unzipped and then cd'ed in cygwin to the directory where nutch-nightly was unzipped (a folder with bin, lib, nutch-nightly.jar). In this directory i ran ./bin/nutch args and got the error I described. <quote> the package "net.nutch.tools.." shows the version is oooold. pls check out the version on apache. </quote> I've only ever downloaded nutch from the new version from apache... why is it referring to an old package then?
