ANT Install error

[sub venkat]

Hi,
I just installed ANT on Win XP box, and after setting up the ANT_HOME and the ant/bin in the path,
ran "ant -version". Th eoutput follows:
______________________________________________________
Unable to locate tools.jar. Expected to find it in c:\progra~1\java\lib\tools.jar
Apache Ant version 1.6.1 compiled on February 12 2004
_______________________________________________________________

Where can I find tools.jar? I could'nt find it in the ANT distribution.

thanks,
Sub cat

No, tools.jar is part of the JSDK install. Check your JAVA_HOME property points your JDK install (e.g. c:\JDK1.4.1_05)

Thanks Paul,

My JAVA_HOME points to a JRE, not JDK. So I downloaded a JDK and reset the JAVA_HOME variable.

thanks.
