Better is to use the genkey task of ANT. I prefer argument instead of argline, but then you have to set every single word.
Instead of <arg value="-keystore ${keystore_name}" /> write <arg value="-keystore" /> <arg value="${keystore_name}" /> -- Jürgen Knuplesch www.icongmbh.de icon Systemhaus GmbH Tel. +49 711 806098-275 Sophienstraße 40 D-70178 Stuttgart Fax. +49 711 806098-299 Geschäftsführer: Uwe Seltmann HRB Stuttgart 17655 USt-IdNr.: DE 811944121 -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: supareno [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Gesendet: Dienstag, 16.
