Ruth I think your confusing the Nightly builds
http://ci.apache.org/projects/ofbiz/snapshots/ofbiz-rel9.04-current.zip
with the Final Release(apache-ofbiz-09.04.zip)
http://ofbiz.apache.org/download.html#release-09.04 .
the Final release has not changed it format. it is the code minus all
the svn tags for versioning. it also has a check sum to validate you
downloaded the full zip file.
up till the final release of 9.04(zip) there were only the branch and
nigthly builds.
The Branch is source code only and access via the svn.
the nightly builds are compiled and have the demo data loaded.
http://ci.apache.org/projects/ofbiz/snapshots/
as you can see you can pick dates of nightly builds.

Hi Laxmiraghu:
Unfortunately, the project recently decided to change the way OFBiz is
distributed. And, they pretty much forgot to tell anyone. The jar file
is no longer part of the distribution as it was as recently as 6 months
ago. You MUST now build OFBiz prior to startup. The build process as
described in various locations around the community will create all the
necessary jar files.
For more information on this including very simple build instructions,
you may download my free document "How To Get OFBiz Code (Release 9.04)"
at http://www.myofbiz.com/cms01
BTW, inclusion of the necessary jar files could change any day since the
decision to do such things appear to be arbitrarily arrived out by the
project commiters or whoever is responsible for setting up the builds.
Good luck.

Recently i downloaded ofbiz 9.04 version for windows.
I installed mysql and java 6 and set the JAVA_HOME variable.
I unpacked the ofbiz downloaded zip file to C drive. It created a
directory
'apache-ofbiz-09.04'.
As per the documentation, i went to the above directory and executed
'startofbiz.bat' command.
But it gave the following error message.
C:\apache-ofbiz-09.04>"C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_21\bin\java"
-Xms128M
-Xmx
512M -jar ofbiz.jar
Unable to access jarfile ofbiz.jar
It's unable to find ofbiz.jar file.
I also searched for ofbiz.jar file in entire apache-ofbiz-09.04
folder. It's
not found.
Where can i find that file? Hope it's part of the downloaded zip file.
Please help.
