Hi all... I have a strange situation with a JAR task... I'm dealing with a build script that has always worked and has not changed. The version of Ant has not changed (1.6.1) and in fact nothing else that I can identify has changed.

The error I get is:

C:\tomcat\webapps\ajaxtags\WEB-INF\src\build.xml:224: Unable to rename old file (C:\tomcat\webapps\ajaxtags\WEB-INF\src\struts.jar) to temporary file

Here is the task and the three relevant properties:

<property name="src" value="./" />
<property name="classes" value="../classes" />
<property name="webinf" value="../" />
<target name="update_jar">
  <echo message="Updating JAR..." />
<jar destfile="${src}/struts.jar" basedir="${classes}" update="true" excludes="com/**/*" /> <jar destfile="${src}/struts.jar" basedir="${src}/META-INF" update="true" includes="struts-html.tld" /> <copy file="${src}/META-INF/tlds/struts-html.tld" todir="${webinf}" overwrite="true" />
  <copy file="${src}/struts.jar" todir="${libs}" overwrite="true" />
  <delete dir="${classes}/org" />
  <delete dir="${src}/META-INF" />
  <echo message="Done" />
</target>

This is from within a src directory under WEB-INF of a webapp. Like I said, this has always worked before, it just suddenly stopped today.

The only reference I found on the web was to this:

http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/logging-log4j-dev/200305.mbox/[EMAIL 
PROTECTED]

...where the Log4J crew seems to experience this sporadically. Problem is, I have rebooted, re-checked out the project from CVS and tried to build probably 30 times now, and it keeps happening.

Any pointers?  Thanks!
