Thanks for the quick reply Andrew.. Files do exist, but if type ./ant in its directory i get the bad interpreter error. The top was originally #!/bin/sh but thats a sublink to #!/bin/bash so i changed it to #!/bin/bash and I still get the same error...
is there any reason why there are periods before ./ $PWD./tools/antipede/bin/ant -emacs $@ the path ended up like this /home/admin/downloads/poi/./tools/etc I took out the periods and also had to add full path to the chmod lines for antRun and ant.
