What system you us? Linux, Windows??? Is wgwt a batchfile or a executable file?
The Ant manual says: Note that .bat files cannot in general by executed directly. One normally needs to execute the command shell executable cmd using the /c switch. <target name="help"> <exec executable="cmd"> <arg value="/c"/> <arg value="ant.bat"/> <arg value="-p"/> </exec> </target> I discourage the use of arg line, because I had trouble with it. Use <arg value> instead: <arg value="/c"/> <arg value="ant.bat"/> <arg value="-p"/> Greetings -- Jürgen -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: Craig Riley [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Gesendet: Mittwoch, 14.

I have been running my build script from within Eclipse and I've come across my first problem. I've searched online but I couldn't find an answer to this problem. My build script creates a coldfusion file which I need to run as part of setup. My build script uses the following command command: <exec executable="cmd"> <arg line="c:\wget\wget -O - http://localhost/ant/build/index.cfml" /> </exec> Ant doesn't error when I run it which isn't helpful. If I go to the file path in a browser it runs ok and does everything it should, and if I run the command from a command line (c:\wget\wget -O - http://localhost/ant/build/index.cfml) it also works fine. I suspect this maybe something to do with the ant/eclipse setup or a missing library on my machine but I'm really not sure? Please help! :) Cheers Craig ---------------------------------------------------------------- This message was sent using IMP, the Internet Messaging Program. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
