Viewservlets.jar Not Being Created [message #1007633]

Downloaded source for BIRT_3_7_1_Release_201109131734 e12663d.
With a couple updates to plugins - built exactly as described in book and on web page.
Followed instructions for the creation of the viewservlets.jar. Jar was not created.
Set arguments as directed in the web page, step 7. -DbuildDirectory=C:\swri-eclipse\eclipse\ -Dbuild.from.workspace=true then refreshed the project. Looks like it is only getting part way thru the script. This is the console output:

I was able to create the viewservlets.jar once from a CVS version downloaded last year and I know the script should take longer to run then 811 milliseconds. Any suggestions. Thank you.

This looks like it may be a bug. I got it to work by changing the customBuildCallbacks.xml file. Specifically lines 39-44

<property name="core.dir" location="../../core/org.eclipse.birt.core" />
<property name="dataextraction.dir" location="../../engine/org.eclipse.birt.report.engine.dataextraction" />
<property name="viewer.model.dir" location="../../model/org.eclipse.birt.report.model" />
<property name="engine.dir" location="../../engine/org.eclipse.birt.report.engine" />
<property name="data.dir" location="../../data/org.eclipse.birt.data" />
<property name="data-adapter-api.dir" location="../../data/org.eclipse.birt.report.data.adapter" />

Can you open a bugzilla request for this? Also make sure to set a build directory as shown in the picture on step 7
