<target name="archive" depends="stage" description="creates an archive containing all projects's resources and build artifacts."> <property name="archive.dir" value="${project.dir}"/> <mkdir dir="${archive.dir}"/> <zip destfile="${archive.dir}/${archive.name}" encoding="UTF8" whenempty="create"> <fileset dir="${staging.dir}"/> </zip> </target> In the build log, it says right before the [zip] out put [mkdir] Skipping /path-to/..../archivedir because it already exists And post-build failure I checked to make sure that staging.dir actually existed as well -----Original Message----- From: Greg Roodt [mailto:gro...@gmail.com] Sent: Tuesday, July 28, 2009 2:04 PM To: Ant Users List Subject: Re: Problem with zip task Hmmmm, looks a bit suspicious.
