building jboss portal from its source

[lavanyalingampalli]

Hi!!

I am trying to build the jboss portal from its source using the command "build deploy" on windows in the build directory of the jboss_home directory.

I have already downloaded the source code, and now while trying to build it, an error occurs which says "ant script doesn't exist"

Can anyone help me out with this.

it would have been helpful to see the whole stack trace of your error, as well as which ant script doesn't exist, but try another command - from jboss-portal-2.4/build type ant deploy, but make sure you have set JBOSS_HOME in your environment (where the application server is) otherwise the build will fail - after building the source this target copies the jboss-portal.sar into the deploy dir of your JBOSS_HOME. If you'd like to just build the sources, use 'ant' or 'ant main'
