Executing tasks
[echo] Hello World
[ERROR]The following mojo encountered an error while executing:
[ERROR]Group-Id: org.apache.maven.plugins
[ERROR]Artifact-Id: maven-antrun-plugin
[ERROR]Version: 1.2
[ERROR]Mojo: run
[ERROR]brought in via: POM
[ERROR]While building project:
[ERROR]Group-Id: haiko
[ERROR]Artifact-Id: test
[ERROR]Version: 1.0-SNAPSHOT
[ERROR]From file: C:\Dokumente und Einstellungen\hemmel\Eigene
Dateien\Projects\test\pom.xml
[ERROR]Reason: An Ant BuildException has occured: Could not create task or type
of type: propertyfile.
[ERROR]Ant could not find the task or a class this task relies upon.
[ERROR]This is common and has a number of causes; the usual
[ERROR]solutions are to read the manual pages then download and
[ERROR]install needed JAR files, or fix the build file:
[ERROR] - You have misspelt 'propertyfile'.
[ERROR] Fix: check your spelling.
[ERROR] - The task needs an external JAR file to execute
[ERROR] and this is not found at the right place in the classpath.
[ERROR] Fix: check the documentation for dependencies.
[ERROR] Fix: declare the task.
[ERROR] - The task is an Ant optional task and the JAR file and/or libraries
[ERROR] implementing the functionality were not found at the time you
[ERROR] yourself built your installation of Ant from the Ant sources.
[ERROR] Fix: Look in the ANT_HOME/lib for the 'ant-' JAR corresponding to the
[ERROR] task and make sure it contains more than merely a
META-INF/MANIFEST.MF.
[ERROR] If all it contains is the manifest, then rebuild Ant with the needed
[ERROR] libraries present in ${ant.home}/lib/optional/ , or alternatively,
[ERROR] download a pre-built release version from apache.org
[ERROR] - The build file was written for a later version of Ant
[ERROR] Fix: upgrade to at least the latest release version of Ant
[ERROR] - The task is not an Ant core or optional task
[ERROR] and needs to be declared using <taskdef>.
[ERROR] - You are attempting to use a task defined using
[ERROR] <presetdef> or <macrodef> but have spelt wrong or not
[ERROR] defined it at the point of use
[ERROR]Remember that for JAR files to be visible to Ant tasks implemented
[ERROR]in ANT_HOME/lib, the files must be in the same directory or on the
[ERROR]classpath
[ERROR]Please neither file bug reports on this problem, nor email the
[ERROR]Ant mailing lists, until all of these causes have been explored,
[ERROR]as this is not an Ant bug.
