"ant intro-interest-jar" on win2000

[eszhou]

Hello,

I have just installed JBOSS 2.4.3 together with tomcat 3.2. When I run "ant intro-interest-jar" in directory %JBOSS_DIST%/examples/build, I got following error:
<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
D:\JBoss-2.4.3_Tomcat-3.2.3\jboss\examples\build>ant intro-interest-jar
Buildfile: build.xml

validate-servlet:

BUILD FAILED

D:\JBoss-2.4.3_Tomcat-3.2.3\jboss\examples\build\build.xml:36: Could not create

, if this is an optional task, to put the optional.jar in the lib directory of your ant installation (ANT_HOME).

The line 36 of build.xml is:


What is wrong?

Hi,

The build.xml is wrong.

It should be ${jboss.dist}/client/jboss-j2ee.jar

just changed ejb.jar to jboss_j2ee.jar,
but running
"ant intro-interest-jar" I got the same error:

This line makes problem, but I don't know how to fix it.

Adrian,

the relevant build.xml is shown below:

<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

<!-- Override with your web server servlet jar location.
The default assumes that JBOSS_DIST points to a
JBoss/Tomcat bundle distribution
-->

the line 36 is:

Hi,

I downloaded the source. This doesn't include the examples.
Also, I haven't downloaded the optional Tomcat.
I will still try to help you.

The ejb.jar, jboss-j2ee.jar is a red herring.
It was ejb.jar on JBoss 2.2, this example handles both
2.2 and 2.4

The problem is in the validate-servlet target.
Looks like it cannot find servlet.jar

Do you have the environment variable JBOSS_DIST set.
From the comment this needs to point to the directory where you installed JBoss.
If this is set correctly, see if one of the paths mentioned on your last post exists and contains servlet.jar

Adrian

adrian,

you can download the examples file from http://www.jboss.org/doco_files/

the file name is: documentation-example.zip.

Thanks,

%JBOSS_DIST% is set to "D:\JBoss-2.4.3_Tomcat-3.2.3\jboss"

and %TOMCAT_HOME% is set to "D:\JBoss-2.4.3_Tomcat-3.2.3\tomcat"

they all look fine!

Thanks for your help!

Hi,

I need integrated Tomcat as well.

Download in progress...

I had this same problem (on solaris). I am not using the integrated tomcat, so I added a line in the build.xml file to point to my servlet.jar.

Still broke. Taking a wild stab, I typed ant -version and got 1.3. I upgraded to ant 1.4.1 and it builds, so what version of ant are you running?

[eszhou]

I am using ant 1.3 on win2000. It does not build.

does upgrade to ant 1.4 work out for you? That is great!

Thanks,

[drbugs]

Yeah, it was kinda cool.

Try it and let us know if it works for you...

[eszhou]

just installed ant 1.4.1. and it builds successfully!

[drbugs]

Sweet!

I'ts nice when things work...

Have fun!
