See: ANT: KJS#00001 %SystemDrive% (c.a. 20030120) It may be that winME is like win9x: %SystemDrive% is NOT defined. The ant.bat script expects it to be and it is on NT and XP because they have this environment variable defined. Type "set" without the quotes at the command prompt. If it is not there, then do "set SystemDrive=:" without the quotes. The documentation is silent on this! I never got a reply to my question. I just had to continue to rewrite the ant.bat script until I found this ant "oops!" As an after thought, the Perl runAnt.pl is not so affected. I was able to confirm my Ant installation was intact and good-to-go. So I could focus on the winScript and locate the problem. Hope this helps. jimS ----- Original Message ----- From: "Chappell, Simon P" To: "Ant User Mailing List (E-mail)" Sent: Monday, January 27, 2003 2:47 PM Subject: Ant 1.5.1 on Windows ME > I am successfully and happily running ant on Windows 2K, Linux and Mac OS X, but now that my wife is surrendering my Windows ME laptop back to me for portable tinkering, I am having great frustrations getting ant 1.5.1 to work on it. > > With JDK 1.4.1 and 1.3.1, I get the "ANT_HOME is set incorrectly or ant could not be located.

I run without a CLASSPATH environment variable, does that make a difference on Windows ME?
