Ant newbie question

[jose luis fernandez diaz]

Hi,

I am trying to build a 'jwstutorial13' example. When I run 'ant' it
shows the message below:


sqocfms01:jdiaz:gs>ant -verbose
Ant version 1.2 compiled on October 24 2000

My ANT_HOME and JAVA_HOME are:

sqocfms01:jdiaz:gs>echo $ANT_HOME
/APACHE/WEBCFMS/jakarta-tomcat-3.2.3
sqocfms01:jdiaz:tmp>echo $JAVA_HOME
/usr/opt/java131



Any hint ?

Thanks,
Jose Luis.

whether it's the root cause or not, this is a ridiculously ancient version
of Ant and will certainly be doing you no favours.

Any hint ?

yes, upgrade to at least 1.5.4
