Yes, of course -- apologies having misread. <g>
The build should have copied "junit.jar" into $ANT_HOME/lib as per line 26 of $BEEHIVE_HOME/build.xml. The "bootstrap" target should take care of these initializations. This could also explain a potential problem with running Tomcat. This build step also ensures that the "manager" role is defined in the Tomcat install, which is needed in order for the Tomcat Ant tasks to successfully deploy / undeploy a webapp to the running server.

Hi Eddie.
One thing that's curious is the need to have the "junit.jar" in the shell's classpath -- this shouldn't be necessary. Why did you need to add it? What are your JDK and Ant versions?
The "junit.jar" is not in the SHELL's classpath, but in the ANT's classpath. I meant the junit.jar must reside in the ANT_HOME/lib directory.
Ant's doc says------------------
Remember that for JAR files to be visible to Ant tasks implemented in ANT_HOME/lib, the files must be in the same directory or on the classpath --------------------------------
It's weird that building and testing worked fine on Linux without doing that kinda stuff.
But somehow it required a junit.jar in ANT's classpath on eclipse + Win2K.
I'm using jdk-1_5_0-beta3-bin-b60-windows-i586-28_jul_2004.exe (latest one) and the version of ANT is 1.6.2 as specified by BEEHIVE_HOME/BUILDING.txt.
When you say "tomcat is stuck", how far do the tests get? For help getting going with the NetUI tests, you might start here:
http://wiki.apache.org/beehive/NetUI/Testing
which describes how the test infrastructure starts / stops Tomcat and give some hints at how to diagnose trouble.
Thanks for giving me a path.
Thanks in advance.
