Hi Dominique,
I am running version 1.5.4. Unfortunately it's not an option for me to
update to another version, it is prepackaged with our product. I am using
the jar that we ship and there is no pre-installed ant on the system.
Is anyone else developing on RHEL 4 by any chance?
Thanks!!

Re: Redhat Linux Enterprise issues with command line argument containing
spaces
First, make sure you're using the install of Ant you expect. Linux
often comes with a pre-installed Ant which might be older than the one
you think you are using, which ant.sh automatically use by default.
Use the package manager to find out if Ant is pre-installed.
Second, this sounds like an issue with ant, the Shell script in
$ANT_HOME/bin that starts the Ant VM, although it's strange no one
would have noticed it before.
Which version of Ant as you using BTW? --DD
