Error while building with ant

[gautham k]

Hi guys,

I have win 2000 pro, db27.2 trail version, j2ee tutorial installed on my PC. I tried do the tutorial on my PC . I set all the environment variables
JAVA_HOME
J2EE_HOME
ANT_HOME
correctly.
When i tried to use ant for building with the below command at command line :
ant converter
I am getting a error as following
--------------------------------------------------------
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Files\SQLLIB\java\db2
java/zip;D:\Program
------------------------------------------------------------
Can anybody suggest what to do to get rid of this error

Thank you

gothamk,
Thanks for joining JavaRanch, but could you take a quick look at the naming policy and edit your profile accordingly.

Hi laxmi,
I set the variables as below
JAVA_HOME=c:\jdkse1.3;
J2EE_HOME=c:\jdksee1.3;
ANT_HOME=c:\jakarta-ant-1.3;
and
PATH=.;%JAVA_HOME%\bin; %J2EE_HOME%\bin; %ANT_HOME%\bin;
I used the Sun's j2ee deploy tool for creating the j2ee applications
I am getting the the said error when I am trying to build the application using ant.I am not passing any varaibles when building
just the command at the dos prompt
ant coverter // at the command prompt, here converter is application name
can give some suggestions
Thank you
