Paul-
2 things that I would look for

move "$JAVA_HOME\bin" to front of $PATH

make sure your JRE and JDK(SDK) are the same version
e.g.
javac -version Test.java
java -version
SHOULD report the same version

Anyone else ???

Dear dev@ant.apache.org,

I am using ant to compile my struts webapp. I am using Linux 2.4.27 and running ant (1.5.2-26) from my shell which is bash. My environment variables which I set in my .bash_profile are:
$JAVA_HOME=/usr/java/jdk1.5.0_02
$CLASSPATH=/usr/java/jdk1.5.0_02/lib:/usr/java/jdk1.5.0_02/jre/lib

Here is my problem. When I compile my classes using the default compiler for my system (kjc) I get this error:

error: Can't find default package `java.lang'. Check the CLASSPATH environment variable and the access to the archives

Which I can live with (even though my CLASSPATH variable is probably correct) since I really ought to be using the jdk1.5.0_02 compiler. If I set the compiler attribute of <javac> task in my build.xml to modern, it should use the javac compiler that comes with my JDK. When I do I get this error:

Unable to find a javac compiler;
com.sun.tools.javac.Main is not on the classpath.
Perhaps JAVA_HOME does not point to the JDK

If I run the javac command manually from the command prompt, something like this:
javac -cp MY/VERY/LONG/CLASSPATH/ src/uk/co/webotech/myproject/MyClass.java

It compiles fine... By the way, typing "which javac" in my shell returns /usr/java/jdk1.5.0_02/bin/javac. How can I get ant to find javac?

Any help with this would be greatly appreciated!

Paul
