Well, it tells you the line that your build.xml was on when the error failed, and the error (Cannot resolve symbol) and the symbol it cannot resolve (getTxnGrps).
What is probably happening is that this class is in a JAR that isn't in your classpath. If you look at the compiler error, you should see the name of the program that was executing when this failed. If there is no compiler output log, you can set the "verbose" and/or "listfiles" to true in the <javac> task. That way, the files will be listed, and you'll see which one is giving you the error. What you need to do is: 1). Determine what is in your classpath. If you have a property that contains the classpath, print it out before you execute this task. You maybe missing a particular jar or class in your classpath. If you are using a "refid" for a classpath, then convert it over to a property by using the following syntax: <property name="classpath_prop" refid="classpath"> <echo message="CLASSPATH = "${classpath_prop}""/> 2). You will have to hunt down where this class is defined. I don't think it is a standard class in any standard library (a Google search pulled up nothing), so it may be something that is compiled in another library and that library should be included in your classpath. Try a text search of "getTxnGrps" in your source to see if you can find where it is being defined. 3). If it isn't being defined in your source code, and if you're on Unix, you may want to go through your jar directory and search through all jars for a classfile where that class may be defined: $ cd $JAR_DIR $ find . -name "*.jar" | while read jar do echo "####JAR=$jar" jar tvf $jar echo "" done > jar.output Then search "jar.output" for a possible candidate classfile (With luck, it will actually be called "getTxnGrps.class"). 4). If nothing else worked, Find the developer who last worked on that file, and ask them where "getTxnGrps" is defined. They should know. Also, if you're using version control, find out when the code was added to the file that caused this issue. That might help pinpoint why this error occurred.
