Try to take care of this PATH at the system environment level. Make sure
cvs is found is the $PATH ot %PATH% when you open a DOS cmd or Unix
shell. This will fix PATH on IntelliJ like tools, as the system
environment is pre-set.

Hi James

Thank you for your answer but I know that the exec command doesn't make
the thing work but it was just one of my try-outs..  I tried to add the
path to the cvs.exe in IntelliJ but it seems that he doesn't find it
afterall and that's the thing that's causing me these frustrations.

So is there any other way to indicate to ant where the cvs.exe is
located?

Thank you very much!
Greetings
Lieve

exec causes a new instance of your shell to run, and sets up
environment
variables for that instance, hence any changes aren't persisted when
the
exec task ends.

Is there a particular reason you can't add the location of the cvs
executable to the system PATH or user PATH, as suggested in=20
