Hi all,

I am gone crazy trying to run the first tutorial application in chp 2 of the documenation. For some reason ant tries to use GIJ (java bytecode interpreter) to run the application and this is what I get when I run it:


$ant run -Daction=store
Buildfile: build.xml

clean:
[delete] Deleting directory /a/data/kashi/bin
[mkdir] Created dir: /a/data/kashi/bin

copy-resources:
[copy] Copying 3 files to /a/data/kashi/bin

compile:
[javac] Compiling 3 source files to /a/data/kashi/bin

run:
[java] gij: unrecognized option -- `-classpath'
[java] Try `gij --help' for more information.
[java] Java Result: 1

BUILD SUCCESSFUL
Total time: 0 seconds


I have no clue why is it doing that and kind of making my life miserable .....Any suggestions guys???

Can you show a copy of your environment variables?

i.e. Open a command prompt, type "set > env.txt" and copy the contents of that file to here. (I'm assuming you're on Windows. If you're using Unix, I'm sure you know how to do something similar.)

Sorry I should have mentioned that.... I am on Linux box. and the only env variables relevant to this application which I guess you are intersted to see are:

JAVA_HOME=/usr/java/jdk1.5.0_04
PATH=/usr/kerberos/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/usr/java/jdk1.5.0_04/bin:.


What else do you think needs to be set as env variables ????

Well, it just doesn't seem like this is a Hibernate problem. I'd suggest you start with the Ant documentation and start looking at the environment variables that it thinks are important (JAVACMD in particular).

http://ant.apache.org/manual/running.html#envvars

I'd also check to make sure that an alias isn't screwing things up. For instance, if you run "$ java -version" are you seeing what you expect, or are you seeing something about gij?

Nice catch on this, but yes I tried $java -version and YES I can see my current version of java that is installed on my machine. Thanks for the help coming, I will definetly keep you posted about whats happening on the ANT side.
