Kevin,

I wasn't 100% clear on whether you were addressing me (Matt Lyon) or Matt McCauliffe, 
who originally spawned the thread. However, assuming you were asking me, I didn't 
bother reverting to Ant 1.4.1 sans environment variables as a test case once we had a 
solution in place to move forward with Ant 1.5 plus environment variables. If I find 
some cycles today I can try to diff the ejbc calls in the Ant 1.5 code base against 
the same in Ant 1.4.1 and post any meaningful insights I happen to derive.

Cheers,

Matt

Hey Matt,

You guys tried going back to 1.4.1 and see if it fixed the problem? Not always the 
case, but if it works on 1.4.1, and not on 1.5, then either Ant is the problem (not 
likely), or something Ant is doing when invoking ejbc is different. You could check 
the src of both versions and see if anything changed.

FWIW,

We ran into this on one of the developers' systems in our shop under the Ant 1.5 
upgrade. I didn't get down in the weeds to find out the exact why's, but found that 
setting %ANT_HOME% to the root install of ant (e.g. C:\ant or some such), setting 
%JAVA_HOME% to the root dir of the jdk install (e.g. C:\jdk131 or whatever), and then 
adding %ANT_HOME%\bin and %JAVA_HOME%\bin to the %PATH% fixed the problem. I'm not 
sure why Ant 1.4.1 was working without the definition of these environment variables, 
I haven't diffed the scripts shipped with the Ant binary distros of 1.4.1 and 1.5.

HTH,

Matt

Hmmm, odd. If you can replicate it I would suggest running with the -debug 
flag to see what command line is being used. If you can cut and paste that 
onto a command line (you may need to use keepgeneric for that) and see if it 
works from there. As you can see the error is actually occuring in ejbc, not 
ejbjar - so technically not part of Ant. It would be interesting to contrast 
the command line with 1.4 in this case.

I don't think either of these will have an impact since they are not 
involved when Ant invokes java to run ejbc, but worth trying anyway.
