okay ... so write permissions is available on all files then ...

where you keep user settings for ant most people dont have it (this was
just a precaution incase you did).

okay you will have to copy xerces.jar from your solaris system or
alternatively get xerces from cvs (goto xml.apache.org to get details).

CLASSPATH=${CLASSPATH}:${JAVA_HOME}/lib/classes.zip:${JAVA_HOME}/lib/tools.jar
CLASSPATH=${CLASSPATH}:src/main:${CLASSDIR}

specifically look at these lines in bootstrap. JAVA_HOME should be set to
your java directory and you currently have it set to /usr/local/java. 

Verify that location contains JDK 1.2.2 and not the JRE 1.2.2 - in which
case /usr/local/java/lib/classes.zip should not exist but
/usr/local/java/lib/tools.jar should.

Make sure you are not using the kaffe virtual machine/compiler which comes
with default instal on some distributions (notably the red hat distros). In
which case try to uninstall it or put /usr/local/java/bin at the start of
PATH environment variable (by export PATH=/usr/local/java/bin:$PATH if in a
bourne style shell) .

other than that try running javac at commandline and getting compiler
version etc

Cheers,

Pete
