Based on the error statements I see, java must be found. But, I agree
that it looks like an environment issue...

Seems your java environment is not correct.
Try running "java -version" is that working ok.
Check your environment with "set" is JAVA_HOME set, and ANT_HOME ?
Remember to put %JAVA_HOME%/bin on the environment PATH setting.
That should be it.

Subject: Ant won't run, help interpreting output needed
I have used ant on several occasions in the past, installing in on three or
four computers. I just installed it on my workstation at a new job this

with or without the build file, I get the following. Can someone tell me where
I've gone wrong? Thanks.
