try with ant -verbose. This problem can happen with having old versions of ant in the classpath of the forked junit task. In this case the contents of lib.path should be looked at. (common causes would be jars that have embedded ant classes - fo example weblogic.jar and jrun.jar)
In the current svn version of ant some diagnostics has been added to check this condition. Peter On 1/29/07, Andrew Close <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
hello all, i'm attempting to get the fork attribute to work with the optional JUnit task. when attempting a build on this machine we are getting JVM OutOfMemoryErrors during the JUnit task. so i figured i would use the fork command and then be able to up the JVM heap size for that particular task. however i'm now getting 'Process fork failed' messages, but no details as to why. here is the target i'm using to invoke JUnit: <target name="test" depends="package_tests" > <junit fork="${junit.fork}" forkmode="${junit.forkmode}" maxmemory="${junit.maxmemory}" printsummary="${junit.printsummary}"> <classpath refid="lib.path" /> <formatter type="${junit.format.type}" /> <batchtest todir="${test.rpts.dir}"> <fileset dir="${test.src.dir}"> <exclude name="**/AllTests.*" /> <include name="**/*Test*.java" /> </fileset> </batchtest> </junit> </target> i've defined the following variables in my properties file: junit.compile.failonerror=true junit.fork=true junit.forkmode=perBatch (i've tried the default and other options as well...) junit.format.type=xml junit.maxmemory=512m junit.printsummary=withOutAndErr junit.report.format=frames in the stacktrace that gets printed during the JUnit task i see java.io.FileNotFoundException: junitvmwatcher1116665720.properties (The system cannot find the file specified) is this a prop file that should be created by the JUnit task? or do i still have something configured incorrectly? thanks for any insight. andy --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
