Hi Antoine, Thank you for this update. I am using a linux server. I've been asked to do this in ANT only. Can you possibly provide me an example of how a similar process might be scripted using ANT? As I have never used ANT or any other similar products before I am using Google for help. Thank you.

Once your database is up, you can use the <sqlexec/> task to run DDL and DML statements. To check whether a script exists, there is a task called <available/> which can set a property if a file is available. For error checking, you can run <exec/> with failonerror="true" to stop your build if a script fails. You need to test before hand whether the system commands or the scripts that you will run to create the database and import the dump are returning proper exit statuses. (setting ERRORLEVEL on Windows or $? on UNIX).
