Thank you very much, problem is solved!

Maurice, my JAVA_HOME was set to the correct jdk 1.5.0_03 that was being
used by my javac task (I unistalled jdk 1.4.2 to be sure!), thanks for that!

Stefan and Peter, bingo! I did have generated .class files on my
classpath!!!

I followed Peter's advice and removed any references to .class files that
were being generated from my classpath reference
"compile-classpath". This stopped the ZipExceptions appearing, and it builds
successfully again!!!

Although, this doesn't explain why the error did not occurr (with both ant
1.6.1 and 1.6.5) while I was using jdk1.4.2. The error happened only when I
moved to jdk 1.5.0_03....? Maybe it has come back from jdk1.3 as Stefan
suggested...

Thanks again!

Fabricio

This should be a FAQ!

You have a .class file in your class path (i.e. not a directory or a .jar
file). Starting with ant 1.6, ant will open the files in the classpath
checking for manifest entries. This attempted opening will fail with the
error "java.util.zip.ZipException"

The problem does not exist with ant 1.5 as it does not try to open the
files. - so make sure that your classpath's do not contain .class files.
