To launch batch files you need to execute cmd.exe with correct parameters ("/c" and "startup.bat"). You cannot execute the batch files themselves.

Hello everybody,

I'm having difficulties using <exec> with Windows XP. When I'm trying
to run an Ant Script with a command like this :

<exec dir="C:/Programme/Apache Software Foundation/Tomcat 5.0/bin" executable="startup.bat"
os="WindowsXP">


      </exec>

simply nothing happens. I don't even get a warning. Can anybody tell me what
I did wrong ?


Best Regards,

Peter
