I've had similar things happen, but it was because the user that starts =
the
task (using scheduled tasks) isn't the same as the one that is logged =
in.
The user that starts the task didn't have the access to the environment
variables needed to run ant (java_home, ant_home, etc).  I moved the =
env
vars from user to system and all problems went away.

In a few batch files, I have a one-liner to run ant from a bat file - =
just
says "ant" and works fine.

Yes,  You must use a CALL  like any other execution of a a program =
withing
a .bat file. I found that out the hard way the other day. BAT would =
START
ant, simpy using the ANT  command, but exited the command shell =
immediately
afterward, rather than continuing on through my script. BTW, I notice
that ANT passes a success rc=3D1,  rather than Rc=3D0.   Strange ... I =

Please respond to "Ant Users List" <user@ant.apache.org>

the "ant" starts a new batch file (%ant_home%\bin\ant.bat). And after =
doing
the
"-help" that batch file exits the whole session.

You have to do a "call ant -help".
