Can't run DynaForm - BUILD FAILED - Ant - ant

To run the sample application of DynaForm (a dynamic web form generator) I followed the readme instruction:
DynaForm - a dynamic web form genrator
To run the sample application use your command line and type "ant".
Then open localhost:2000/ on your browser.
The build script requires ANT and JDK (at least Java 1.6) to be in the path.
The DynaForm's project site is hostet at:
http://code.google.com/p/xsd-web-forms/

In my Mac I have ANT and JDK (with Java 1.6). When launch in my command line "ant" I have this error:
BUILD FAILED
/Users/colet/Desktop/dynaform/build.xml:64: /Users/colet/Desktop/dynaform/${env.ANT_HOME}/lib does not exist.
Maybe I misunderstood the sentence:
The build script requires ANT and JDK (at least Java 1.6) to be in the path.
what does "to be in the path" mean?
Thanks!

Please clone the DynaForm project from GitHub instead of Google Code:
https://github.com/reinra/dynaform
The newer version builds via Maven instead of Ant, so it's simpler and should work better.

Check that you have defined ANT_HOME environment variable correctly. Refer to Ant installation instructions, if needed.

after I installed apache ofBiz ERP to use it in my computer I found this error on cmd

and this is my command on cmd:
C:\Users\ADMIN\Downloads\apache-ofbiz-18.12.06>ant run-install
Buildfile: build.xml does not exist!
Build failed
What version of OFBiz are you using? Since 16.12 we no longer use Ant but Gradle. Have a look at the main README file (different suffixes are possible depending on version)

Jenkins Cannot find executable for ANT

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).

xjc with annox running from command prompt

I have tried to run a example from the website http://confluence.highsource.org/display/J2B/Annotate+Plugin#AnnotatePlugin-Activation. The very first schema provided in the webpage and I saved it as schema.xsd under c:\jaxb folder. Then, I ran the command 'xjc -extension schema.xsd' from command prompt and I get the similar error. Apparently xjc doesn't seem to understand this url http://annox.dev.java.net. How do I solve this?
You have to add the annotate plugin with all the dependencies to the classpath. See this Ant build file for what dependencies are
You have to activate the plugin using -Xannotate switch
Here's a sample Ant project. I'll assemble a command-line example for the next version.

is sonar multi-module broken?

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).

Can not compile Nutch1.4 with ant

all
I'm trying to deploy Nutch1.4 to Hadoop cluster(following this page). I got some problems when compiling Nutch with ant.
problem 1
When I run ant command, I got the following error:
/home/xenserver/apache-nutch-1.4-bin/build.xml:71: invalid Date syntax in "01/25/1971 2:00 pm"
I remove attribute "datetime" from line 71 in file build.xml and run ant again. Then I got another problem.
problem 2
The error is:
/home/xenserver/apache-nutch-1.4/build.xml:412: syntax errors in ivy file: java.text.ParseException: http://java.sun.com/xml/jaxp/properties/schemaLanguage in file:/home/xenserver/apache-nutch-1.4/ivy/ivy.xml
at org.apache.ivy.plugins.parser.xml.XmlModuleDescriptorParser$Parser.parse(XmlModuleDescriptorParser.java:273)
........
What's wrong with the steps above? Is there any tutorial for compiling Nutch1.4?
Need your help.Thanks in advance.
For compiling nutch 1.4, all you have to do is run ant clean deploy from the nutch directory. The output is created in the directory named 'runtime' with 2 folders: one for local mode and other one for cluster mode.
please check the date settings and ant installation on your machine. I think that is casing the issue. Also have you tampered/ edited /home/xenserver/apache-nutch-1.4/ivy/ivy.xml ? Please check that file too.
EDIT:
There is some problem with the build file when executed on your Linux box.
Check these out: this and this.
These are the things that you should verify on your setup:
java version and ant version : dont use old ones. get the latest ones or ones that are compatible with your nutch release. FYI: for nutch-1.4 I am using apache-ant-1.8.3 and java jdk1.6.0_18. This combination works perfectly fine with me.
Check that you have installed a JDK and not a JRE
Check if your JAVA_HOME environment variable point to the JDK. System PATH variable must have $JAVA_HOME/bin and $ANT_HOME/bin appended to it. ANT_HOME variable must point to the ant installation directory.
Can you successfully run normal ant targets on any other build files ? try out with small ant build file.
Still facing the same issue, run ant command with -v option. This will provide more information about the error faced.
eg.
ant -v clean deploy
