Thanks for the help guys... this is what I got: WITH QUOTES: C:\Users\Brian>cd C:\AntTest C:\AntTest>set JAVA_HOME="C:\Program Files\Java\jdk.1.6.0_23" C:\AntTest>set ANT_HOME="C:\Ant" C:\AntTest>%ANT_HOME%\bin\ant The syntax of the command is incorrect.
WITHOUT QUOTES: C:\Users\Brian>cd C:\AntTest C:\AntTest>set JAVA_HOME=C:\Program Files\Java\jdk.1.6.0_23 C:\AntTest>set ANT_HOME=C:\Ant C:\AntTest>%ANT_HOME%\bin\ant Unable to locate tools.jar. Expected to find it in C:\Program Files\Java\jre6\li b\tools.jar Buildfile: C:\AntTest\build.xml hello: [echo] Hello, World BUILD SUCCESSFUL Total time: 0 seconds So with quotes it wouldn't run at all. Without quotes, it ran, but still is looking in the JRE directory. Is now a good time to start banging my head against the wall?
