OK I figured it out. A bash shell user wrote the build.sh . How can I tell . Because build.sh is written in shell and the export commands are in bash shell format.

for example you can NOT  write the following in shell script
export ANT_HOME=tools

rather you have to write
ANT_HOME=tools ; export ANT_HOME

You can see this all over the build.sh shell script. So for anybody searching the archives that are having the same problem now you know.

I got the same problem today in a lab totally unrelated to cocoon. There were alot of environment variables to setup. So I wrote a script so I wouldn't have to go through typing them every time I opened an xterm. But it didn't seem to work. It would work fine if I exported them one by one from the command line but if I tried running my shell script it give me the exact same "is not an identifier" error.

I couldn't figure it out so would be good if someone can identify the problem.

Hi guys,
I am trying to install cocoon and I am having no luck. I am running Solaris 8 sparc I am guessing that there is something goofy with the build.sh every time
I try to install I get the following


[EMAIL PROTECTED] /usr/local/src/cocoon-2.1.5]# ./build.sh
./build.sh: ANT_HOME=tools: is not an identifier


I set all my environment variables correctly and I tried to edit the build.sh with no luck


CATALINA_HOME=/usr/local/jakarta-tomcat-5.0.19
CLASSPATH=/usr/local/j2sdk1.4.2_02/lib:/usr/local/ant/lib
ANT_HOME=/usr/local/ant
JAVA_HOME=/usr/local/j2sdk1.4.2_02
PATH=/usr/local/ant/bin:/usr/local/bin:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/ ccs/bin:/usr/openwin/bin:/opt/local/lib:/usr/bin/X11:/usr/ucb:/usr/ lib/sparcv9:/usr/lib:/opt/local/bin/mozilla:/usr/local/vnc:/usr/ local/scripts:/usr/local/Openssh/bin:/usr/local/scripts/bin



Any help would be greatly appreciated.
