ok, I think I got it working I did four things:
1. and then in jakarta-tomcat-5 build.properties.default I set the property base.path=c:/development/tomcat-base this can be set to anything, as long as it is a absolute directory, 2. in jakarta-servletapi-5/jsr152 build.xml I changed the property to <property name="servlet-api.jar" value="../jsr154/servlet-api-2.4/lib/servlet-api.jar"/> 3. I built jsr154 cd \jakarta-servletapi-5\jsr154 ant 4. I copied one library \jakarta-servletapi-5\jsr154\servlet-api-2.4\lib\servlet-api.jar to \jakarta-servletapi-5\jsr152\servlet-api-2.4\lib\servlet-api.jar based on this, I think you can figure out what went wrong, I no longer have the full build error, just check out jakarta-tomcat-5 clean and you will reproduce it. Remy, setting it to /usr/local will not work :(, I'm working on windows, I'm sure I get flamed for that alone LOL Filip > -----Original Message----- > From: Filip Hanik > Sent: Friday, March 14, 2003 1:24 PM > To: Tomcat Users List > Subject: RE: Loadbuild Problem > > > and there are more problems, I will let you know if I get it working > > FIlip > > > -----Original Message----- > > From: Filip Hanik > > Sent: Friday, March 14, 2003 1:21 PM > > To: Tomcat Users List > > Subject: RE: Loadbuild Problem > > > > > > the error is in > > > > jsr152/build.xml > > > > and the correct value is > > > > <property name="servlet-api.jar" > > value="../jsr154/servlet-api-2.4/lib/servlet-api.jar"/> > > > > > > Filip > > > > > -----Original Message----- > > > From: kevin carey [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > > > Sent: Friday, March 14, 2003 1:10 PM > > > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > > Subject: Loadbuild Problem > > > > > > > > > Hi, > > > > > > I'm building Tomcat from scratch using directions from > > > http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/building.html > > > > > > I'm running JDK 1.4 on Linux. > > > > > > After about 3 hours, build fails with message: > > > > > > BUILD FAILED > > > file:/home/kevin/apps/tomcat/src/jakarta-tomcat-5/build.xml:465: > > > Basedir /home/kevin/apps/tomcat/src/jakarta-commons/el > > > does not exist > > > > > > Any thoughts? > > > > > > newbie. > > > > > > > > > __________________________________________________ > > > Do you Yahoo!? > > > Yahoo!
