Which is plain wrong. tools.jar is from the JDK. The expected path shown above is clearly the JRE. > The question is why is it expecting it in a different directory? i.e. > C:\Program Files\Java instead of C:\Program Files\ > I have no idea where this search path is coming from, if it is something hardcoded. Some people suggested that ant tries to determine the actual path by invoking java.exe. I made sure that the JDK/bin path is the first one in %PATH% but that doesn't help either. > Maybe you have JAVA_HOME that points to defined somewhere in the scripts?
