Hi
I've always used Ant on Window's environment. I would like to install Ant
on a linux box and set it up as my build machine.
I've already installed the latest Subversion, Tomcat 5.5.14, and JDK 1.5.06
and latest Ant.tar.gz from Apache. I did not do a native compile and just
expanded the binaries into /usr/local. When I was installing the new Ant, I
saw an abbreviated OLD version installed on the server which had the
following files in the following places:
/usr/bin/ant ---- {so I saved a back up copy and replaced this old version
with the new installation from /usr/local/apache-ant-1.6.5/bin/ant. Also I
created a symlink in /usr/local/ant to point to the new installation. So
now when I execute $type ant, I see the correct version}
AND IN
/usr/share/ant/bin/ there were the following OLD symlinks
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 34 Mar 29 2005 activation.jar ->
../../java/activation-20030319.jar
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 24 Mar 29 2005 ant.jar ->
../../java/ant-1.5.2.jar
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 33 Mar 29 2005 ant-optional.jar ->
../../java/ant-optional-1.5.2.jar
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 23 Mar 29 2005 bcel.jar ->
../../java/bcel-5.0.jar
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 36 Mar 29 2005 commons-logging.jar
-> ../../java/commons-logging-1.0.2.jar
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 33 Mar 29 2005 jakarta-regexp.jar
-> ../../java/jakarta-regexp-1.2.jar
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 29 Mar 29 2005 java_cup.jar ->
../../java/java_cup-10.11.jar
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 26 Mar 29 2005 junit.jar ->
../../java/junit-3.8.1.jar
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 28 Mar 29 2005 mail.jar ->
../../java/mail-20031006.jar
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 26 Mar 29 2005 xalan.jar ->
../../java/xalan-2.4.1.jar
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 27 Mar 29 2005 xerces.jar ->
../../java/xerces-2.2.1.jar
WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO WITH THESE FILES? SEVER THE LINKS OR POINT THEM TO
THE NEW INSTALLATION?
Also I added the new paths to my .bash_profile:
# .bash_profile
# Get the aliases and functions
if [ -f ~/.bashrc ]; then
. ~/.bashrc
fi
# User specific environment and startup programs
PATH=/usr/local/ant/:/usr/local/ant/lib:$PATH:/bin:/usr/bin:$HOME/bin:/usr/local/tomcat/server/lib:/usr/local/tomcat/bin
#PATH=$PATH:$HOME/bin:/usr/local/apache-tomcat-5.5.16/server/lib:/usr/local/apache-tomcat-5.5.16/bin
export ANT_HOME=/usr/local/apache-ant-1.6.5
export JAVA_HOME=/usr/java/jdk1.5.0_06
#export PATH=${PATH}:${ANT_HOME}/bin:${ANT_HOME}/lib
export PATH
unset USERNAME
So now when I type ant, I get the following error msg:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError:
org/apache/tools/ant/launch/Launcher
I have NO clue as what I'm doing wrong. Please help!
Thanks.
