Duh. I changed ant to antfile rather than changing file to antfile. With your correction I am back on the true path.
Thank you.

The error message becomes BUILD FAILED C:\Program Files\Canoo\Lynx\build.xml:7: Problem: failed to create task or type antfile Cause: The name is undefined. Action: Check the spelling. Action: Check that any custom tasks/types have been declared. Action: Check that any <presetdef>/<macrodef> declarations have taken place.

"file" should be "antfile". -- Jonathan Rosenberg Founder & Executive Director, Tabby's Place <http://www.tabbysplace.org/> http://www.tabbysplace.org/ From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Victor Havens Sent: Friday, July 24, 2009 12:27 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [Webtest] Ant syntax problem in example Using the example from the Manual/Samples page, I created a build.xml file where line 7 reads <ant dir="tests" file="allTests.xml" />. I have the needed tests directory and the needed alltests.xml file in that directory. When I run the webtest -buildfile I get the error message '...build.xml:7: ant doesn't support the "file" attribute'. Has the ant syntax changed or am I simply misusing it? Thanks Vic Havens
