Friends,
I have installed Apache Tomcat 4.0 on my laptop. And when i installed the Ant 1.5 just dowloaded from the site and installed it. Have declared all the class paths. The server is running fine.
But to test the Ant installation when i type ant in command prompt it gives the following message
Build file bild.xml does not exist
Build Failed
But in the instructions no mention of build.xml. I'm following the book
wrox book - Professional Apache Tomcat. Can some one advice please ?
Thank you.
Kumar

This question is very specific to Tomcat, and we have a whole forum just for Tomcat questions, so I've moved this post there for you.

By default, ANT looks for a build.xml file in the "current" directory.
Each build.xml is specific to a particular project - if you downloaded the Tomcat source, you will find build.xml files in the directory structure in the right place to compile.
ANT is so important we have a forum for ANT questions.
