Eclipse Ant exception...Specified JRE installation does not exist... [message #317120]

Hi all,

I have some non-java projects (Static Web Projects) where I use Ant to do
the builds from...basically, the Ant script just copies files to remote
locations on the network. The Ant scripts use to work, but now I just get
a dialog box with the error/exception:

The specified JRE installation does not exist.

However, I "can" run Ant in my Java projects within the same workspace.
Why won't Ant work on my Static Web Projects, but works fine on my Java
projects?

Environment
-----------
- Windows 2000 Professional, SP4
- Eclipse 3.2.1, Callisto with Data Tools.
- JDK 1.5.0-10

tia,

adym

Open the launch configuration dialog for your Ant build.
Go to the JRE tab
Pick the JRE installation that you wish to use to run the build

Yup. That was it. I had been running the Ant builds by opening the
build.xml into the Editor and then just right-clicking the Targets in the
Outline view and select Run As > Ant Build.

All I had to do was select Run As > Ant Build... to get the dialog...

thx,

adym
