Hi David, Thanks. In fact, running ant is probably simpler than running Nutch. The steps would be:
* what OS are you on (Ant is available for all of them to my knowledge)? * if you need ant, grab a distro from ant.apache.org, otherwise, I'll assume that you've got ant installed and callable from the command line. * unpack the nutch src distribution, cd into that directory, type "ant job", and there you go. HTH! You could try it out by taking the Nutch src code from SVN at: http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/lucene/nutch/tags/1.1, and then trying the steps above. Cheers, Chris On 4/26/10 7:24 AM, "David M.

I guess then I fall into the category of "not most folks." Have been running Nutch for about 14 months and I haven't a clue how to run ant. If there's a place to vote to suggest that compiled versions still be distributed, I vote for that.
