Cheers I got the batch file to work via the schedule tasks I was going about the wrong way kept trying it through the command line and probably getting the syntax wrong.
Thanks you have saved me allot of time -----Original Message----- From: Yarbrough, Jay [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 13 January 2003 18:12 To: Ant Users List Subject: RE: Nightly Ant scripts I'm not sure if this is the answer to your question, or not. But, I'm having no problems running my scripts from the scheduled tasks window. (control panel -> Scheduled Tasks), under Win2K. I kick off a batch file, that in turn runs ANT. I did have difficulty, with the environment settings, until I set them all for the system, as opposed to specific users.

Show the entire batch file, and explain how you are kicking it off. Error 2 is usually "file not found". ----- Original Message ----- From: "Paul Collins" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Ant Users List" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Monday, January 13, 2003 11:50 AM Subject: Nightly Ant scripts Hi I'm using a DOS batch file to run an ant build script, when I run the build script on its own on the command line it works fine but when I run it via the batch file I get: BUILD FAILED file:C:/TEST_NIGHTLY/retAndBld_WebBook.xml:65: java.io.IOException: CreateProcess: ${env.VSS_HOME}\ss Get $/Bs2/WebBook/src -GLC:\TEST_NIGHTLY\src -I- -R -VL0113a001.00.200.2.06.0.o -W -Yguest, error=2 Total time: 4 seconds This is the script I'm using: SET JAVA_HOME=C:\j2sdk1.4.1 cd C:\TEST_NIGHTLY ant -buildfile retAndBld_WebBook.xml 1> c:\out.txt 2> c:\err.txt All suggestions welcome as to how to resolve this problem.

These tools are great for such things. Eric Hatcher's book, "Java Development With ANT" (http://www.manning.com/hatcher), has a nice chapter on continuous integration, focusing on these three tools. He gives a good basic comparison of the three that I agree with. I recommend that you get this book highly - for this, and for the best practices (Integrating SCM with build process and more) help you are looking for in the other email :) There are many many excellent recommendations throughout. IMHO: Based on a very basic look at the three, the most immediately-obvious difference is getting the tool set up- Anthill is the easiest to get running and to get projects started. Other than this and look and feel, each has its own pros and cons, as all seem to be great tools- so a look into the book above and a trial of each might be helpful.
