Perhaps I spoke too soon... Here are the two problems I am having:
1) I am only able to run Ant from within the Ant directory. I am trying to use Ant to build a build.xml within a Pentaho BI application and the steps indicate I should be able to execute Ant from within the Pentaho directory. 2) When I run ant -diagnostics, it indicates that it is unable to find the tools.jar file and that it is expecting to find it in my C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.5.0_15\lib\tools.jar. My environment variables are set as follows: ALLUSERSPROFILE=C:\Documents and Settings\All Users ANT_HOME=C:\Progra~1\Ant\apache-ant-1.7.0 APPDATA=C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator.ENGDOM\Application Data ClusterLog=C:\WINDOWS\Cluster\cluster.log CommonProgramFiles=C:\Program Files\Common Files COMPUTERNAME=BIDEV ComSpec=C:\WINDOWS\system32\cmd.exe DEFLOGDIR=C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\McAfee\DesktopProtection FP_NO_HOST_CHECK=NO HOMEDRIVE=C: HOMEPATH=\Documents and Settings\Administrator.ENGDOM JAVA_HOME=C:\Progra~1\Java\jdk1.5.0_15; JDK_HOME=c:\Progra~1\Java\jdk1.5.0_15; LOGONSERVER=\\Q2K3 NUMBER_OF_PROCESSORS=4 OS=Windows_NT Path=C:\WINDOWS\system32;C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\System32\Wbem;C:\Program Files\Dell\SysMgt\RAC5;C:\Program Files\Dell\SysMgt\oma\bin; C:\Progra~1\Ant\apache-ant-1.7.0\bin PATHEXT=.COM;.EXE;.BAT;.CMD;.VBS;.VBE;.JS;.JSE;.WSF;.WSH PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE=x86 PROCESSOR_IDENTIFIER=x86 Family 15 Model 6 Stepping 4, GenuineIntel PROCESSOR_LEVEL=15 PROCESSOR_REVISION=0604 ProgramFiles=C:\Program Files PROMPT=$P$G SESSIONNAME=Console SystemDrive=C: SystemRoot=C:\WINDOWS TEMP=C:\DOCUME~1\ADMINI~1.ENG\LOCALS~1\Temp TMP=C:\DOCUME~1\ADMINI~1.ENG\LOCALS~1\Temp USERDNSDOMAIN=QUINTON.COM USERDOMAIN=ENGDOM USERNAME=Administrator USERPROFILE=C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator.ENGDOM VSEDEFLOGDIR=C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\McAfee\DesktopProtection windir=C:\WINDOWS However, my ANT diagnostics are showing the following: Unable to locate tools.jar.

How do I get Ant to see the JDK path? And why am I unable to run Ant from other directories?

Part of the problem was having both the JDK and JRE paths in my JAVA_HOME when I only needed the JDK there. I also had to point to the JRE directory of my JDK path. I created a new environment variable called JDK_HOME that only contains my JDK path as well. I also had, for my ANT_HOME variable the higher level Ant directory rather than the apache-ant-1.7.0 directory, which apparently was causing some problems. So, apparently, Ant was a bit confused about where it was looking for stuff.

Also, you stated that the jdk was installed but later indicate that jre was being used. --glenn On Fri, Apr 25, 2008 at 1:19 PM, Debbie Shapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hello - > > Let me preface this with saying I am not a Java guru by any means.
