>From the manual page for Fileset:
excludesfile the name of a file; each line of this file is taken to be an
exclude pattern.
So you want <excludes name="${appRoot}/WEB-INF/web.xml"/>, not <excludesfile/>.

Subject: [newbie] excludesfile not working?
hi list,
newbie here:
I have this copy task:
<property name="appRoot" value="C:/jetty-4.2.20/webapps/oasis"/>
<copy
todir="c:/TEMP/oasis"
overwrite="true"
verbose="false">
<fileset dir="${appRoot}">
<exclude name="agentmemos/"/>
<exclude name="Agent_Manual/"/>
<excludesfile name="${appRoot}/WEB-INF/web.xml"/>
</fileset>
</copy>
the two "exclude" nodes work fine without prepending the appRoot to them.
the script fails to run if I do not prepend appRoot to "excludesfile",
complaining that it cannot find the file, and then when I do use appRoot as
above, the script runs but does not exclude web.xml.
what am I doing wrong?
thanks,
jeff
