That does make sense since the xerces.jar in my path is 1.4 and the ant 1.5b1 uses xerces 2. So I took the xerces JAR out of my classpath and it spit out "java.lang.NoClassDefFound error: org/xml/sax/SAXException". I added the xmlParserAPIs.jar from the 1.5b1 ant binary distribution and I also downgraded to JDK 1.3.1_03. Same error. :-( The odd thing is it seems to get about 1/4 of the way through the process before crapping out. Jason

I did a google on this error and apparently it comes up a lot.
