When doing an ant build (thought jenkins) for a test project, I get the below error. As this test project will be deployed in tomcat why does the build require a netbeans specific module
Obviously I can add the jar file to a path in jenkins and then continue the build, but want to know why it needs a netbeans specific jar?
Is it because the project setup in Netbeans is wrong?
Thanks in advance.

======Error below here =========
var/lib/jenkins/workspace/DeployTest2/nbproject/build-impl.xml:797: The libs.CopyLibs.classpath property is not set up.
This property must point to
org-netbeans-modules-java-j2seproject-copylibstask.jar file which is part
of NetBeans IDE installation and is usually located at
/java/ant/extra folder.
Either open the project in the IDE and make sure CopyLibs library
exists or setup the property manually. For example like this:
ant -Dlibs.CopyLibs.classpath=a/path/to/org-netbeans-modules-java-j2seproject-copylibstask.jar

I have a project with different modules bundled into each others.
We build with ant and I have no problem running the Ant build inside Intellij if I provide the path to the generic build files through a property (repository.dir : C:/myRepositoryFolder).
Similarly, I have no problem running my ant build in command line given I have set my environment variable ANT-OPTS with -Drepository.dir=C:/myRepositoryFolder
However, Intellij does not know where to find this folder and therefore the inspection 'Ant inspections / Ant references resolve problems' blow off on most of my build.xml.
Does anybody know where I can show Intellij where to find this folder without modifying my existent build.properties?
Thanks in advance!
I'm using the automatic installation option for Ant but still jenkins complains that it cannot find the executable. Am I missing something? I have given the path to the ant version we use. It has successfully downloaded and unpacked it on the server but it still complains it can't find the executable.
Did you install Ant? Is it in Jenkin's PATH? If not, Jenkins cannot use the default version of Ant.
However, if you go into the Jenkins configuration page, you can install various versions of Ant. For example, you may want to install the latest version of Ant, and Ant 1.5 for that one project that cannot use any version of Ant beyond 1.5:
When you define your project, you can select the version of Ant you want to use. When you select that you want to Invoke Ant as a build step, you are given a drop down menu of what version of Ant you want to use. The first is the Default which is the Ant version found in your PATH. However, if you've gone into Jenkins configuration and downloaded other versions of Ant, you can use one of those instead.
I think is more easy to you install ant manually , or you need check the jenkins log file for detailed errors
Found what I missed. I had to add the name of the directory it unpacks the ant file to in the
"Subdirectory of extracted archive" field. Forgot to mention we are using a fairly old version of ant. (1.7.0).
trying to make a multi module project I dowloaded the samples in github: I use this folder
https://github.com/SonarSource/sonar-examples/tree/master/projects/multi-module/sonar-runner/java-sonar-runner-modules-own-configuration-file as a project base dir
In a command line in this folder, I type /opt/sonar-runner/bin/sonnar-runner
First thing I find is that sonar-project.properties has a property named sonar.sources=src, but executing throws
Exception in thread "main" org.sonar.runner.RunnerException: You must define mandatory properties: sources
Then I correct this property with sources=src and runner execution finish, adds the project to my sonar server, but no code, modules or file is detected. It is like if all project is empty.
It is exactly the same with other examples and with my own project. No matter if is java, python...
Any help is welcome
You are using an old version of Sonar Runner and/or Sonar. Please update to the latest versions (Sonar Runner 2.2 and Sonar 3.5.1).
I want to open Nutch 2.1 source file (http://www.eu.apache.org/dist/nutch/2.1/) at Intellij IDEA. Here is an explanation of how to open it at Eclipse: http://wiki.apache.org/nutch/RunNutchInEclipse
However I am not familiar with Ant (I use Maven) and when I open that source file many classes are not known by Intellij.
i.e.:
org.apache.hadoop.mapreduce.JobContext
org.apache.gora.mapreduce.GoraMapper
How can I add them to library or what should I do?
I finally figure out how to do it. Now our team can dev nutch in IntellIJ
The process we do
Get nutch source from apache.org
wget http://www.eu.apache.org/dist/nutch/2.3/apache-nutch-2.3-src.tar.gz
Import nutch source in intellij
Get Dependencies by Ant
Run ant runtime
Run ant test
Import dependencies into Intellij
File > Project Structures
Library > Ivy
Click to Plus button
Select all libraries in apache-nutch-2.3/build/lib
Now we have a project with nutch source and all dependencies
I think, you should use ant build for nutch project. Because, pom.xml is problematical for nutch. If you want to use it anyway maven, you check maven dependency in pom.xml .
I think, the problem can be solved with the following:
You create new project via idea and add nutch source. Idea is not
supported ivy ant project. You can install ivy plugin for idea, I
suppose, Idea12 does not support it.
or
You can create ant project for nutch via eclipse and then save
project. Then open the project on idea via eclipse classpath.
or
You can configure classpath. If you use ant build, you should add jars : File->ProjectStructure as follows:
Create a library
Attach Files
Then, if you use ant build, select jars from NUTCH_HOME/build/lib/* after build.
If you use maven build, select jars from ~/.m2/* (MAVEN_REPO)
Although Intellij supports running ant scripts directly through the IDE via the ant plugin, the Intellij editor will not figure out the classpath using your build.xml file by itself.This will result in the editor showing the code littered with errors.
Unfortunately the only solution I found to this is to add all the jars manually.You can get all the jars needed by building the ant project using the ant jar command.
So these are the steps you need to follow :->
1.Run ant jar command in the root of your program
2.Copy all the jars created inside the build folder(they will not be directly inside build folder.I had to go from build->ivy->lib->{project name})
3.Paste these jars to a new folder created somewhere outside the directory
4.Go to File->Project Structure->Libraries. Press the + button.
5.Select all the copied jars and press ok to any prompts which appear.
6.Press finish and wait for indexing to complete.Any dependency errors in the editor should resolve now.
Note: Since you are manually adding jars, you would need to keep them in sync if you change your build.xml file for any dependency change.
It seems that dependencies are managed using Ivy (see the ivy folder in the sources archives), so you could try to install the Ivy plugin, which would allow you to fix your classpath issues.
I might be missing something, but I have been struggling with this problem for some time now.
I have an Web application with Ant build script. I would like to set up an Artifact to this module, (which is the .war file, generated using ant), so that I could deploy this war file, to the configured Tomcat server.
But I am not able to figure out, how to make Intellij use my Ant script to build artifact. I see an option to Run Ant Targets, but this just runs the Ant target and Intellij then proceeds to generate Artifact, in the usual way.
Please let me know if the question is ambiguous. The problem is not Ant Integration with Intellij. I could just use the Ant window and run any target and also could make an Ant target run as part of Build. The problem is to associate an Artifact to a module and leverage the Ant script to build that artifact. I need this to enable, tight tomcat integration, Since while integrating the Tomcat server, I can specify an artifact to be deployed.
Note: Intellij IDEA version 11.1
IDEA can either deploy Artifact or the External Source (directory or file) that is built by Ant or any other tool:
It's not possible to associate IDEA Artifact with Ant build.
