Java EE tutorial, problem with ANT populating database

Hi!

I have followed the instructions in the Java EE tutorial to set up the enviroment but when I execute the command "ant create tables" I get this output:

C:\javaeetutorial5\examples\web\bookstore1>ant create-tables

Buildfile: build.xml

-pre-init:

init:

check:

tools:

start-db:

BUILD FAILED

C:\javaeetutorial5\examples\bp-project\app-server-ant.xml:140: The directory you specified does not exist

I have changed in the build.properties file to this:

#

# The SDK's default installation on Windows is c:/Sun/SDK

# The Application Server's default installation on Windows is

# c:/Sun/AppServer

#

javaee.home=C:\Sun\SDK

javaee.tutorial.home=C:\javaeetutorial5

# machine name (or the IP address) where the applications will be deployed.

javaee.server.name=localhost

# port number where the app-server is accessed by the users

javaee.server.port=8080

# port number where the admin server of the app-server is available

javaee.adminserver.port=4848

# Uncomment the property j2ee.server.username,

# and replace the administrator username of the app-server

javaee.server.username=admin

# Uncomment the property j2ee.server.passwordfile,

# and replace the following line to point to a file that

# contains the admin passwordfor your app-server.

# The file should contain the password in the following line:

#

# AS_ADMIN_PASSWORD=adminadmin

#

# Notice that the password is adminadmin sincethis is

# thedefault password used by the glassfish app-server installation.

#

javaee.server.passwordfile=${javaee.tutorial.home}\examples\common\admin-passwo rd.txt

appserver.instance=server

# Uncomment and setthis property to the location of the browser you

# choose to launch when an application is deployed.

# On Windows and Mac OS X thedefault browser is used.

#default.browser=\Applications\Firefox.app\Contents\MacOS\firefox-bin

# Database vendor propertyfor db tasks

db.vendor=javadb

# Digital certificate propertiesfor mutual authentication

keystore=${javaee.tutorial.home}\examples\jaxws\simpleclient-cert\support\clien t_keystore.jks

truststore=${javaee.home}\domains\domain1\config\cacerts.jks

keystore.password=changeit

truststore.password=changeit

Any idea which directory the error refers to?

I磎 using Netbeans 5.5 and have a connection to my local mysql database.

That's not even close to enough info to figure this out. Seeing the build.xml would be helpful.

Ok, this is the build.xml from bookstore1:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<!-- You may freely edit this file. See commented blocks below for -->

<!-- some examples of how to customize the build. -->

<!-- (If you delete it and reopen the project it will be recreated.) -->

<project name="bookstore1" default="default" basedir=".">

<description>Builds, tests, and runs the project bookstore1.</description>

<property name="is.war.module" value="true" />

<property name="uses.db.sql.file" value="true"/>

<path id="common.jars">

<filelist dir="../bookstore" files="build.xml"/>

</path>

<macrodef name="iterate">

<attribute name="target"/>

<sequential>

<subant target="@{target}" failonerror="false">

<buildpath refid="common.jars"/>

</subant>

</sequential>

</macrodef>

<import file="../../bp-project/main.xml" />

<target name="-pre-deploy" unless="netbeans.home">

<antcall target="create-tables"/>

</target>

<target name="-pre-compile" unless="netbeans.home" depends="init,build-common,copy-common-jars"/>

<target name="build-common" unless="netbeans.home" depends="init">

<iterate target="default"/>

</target>

<target name="copy-common-jars" unless="netbeans.home" depends="init">

<mkdir dir="${build.web.dir}/WEB-INF/lib"/>

<copy file="${reference.bookstore.jar}" todir="${build.web.dir}/WEB-INF/lib"/>

</target>

</project>

And the build.xml in bookstore looks like this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<!-- You may freely edit this file. See commented blocks below for -->

<!-- some examples of how to customize the build. -->

<!-- (If you delete it and reopen the project it will be recreated.) -->

<path id="common.jars">

<filelist dir="../bookstore" files="build.xml"/>

</path>

<macrodef name="iterate">

<attribute name="target"/>

<sequential>

<subant target="@{target}" failonerror="false">

<buildpath refid="common.jars"/>

</subant>

</sequential>

</macrodef>

<import file="../../bp-project/main.xml" />

<target name="-pre-deploy" unless="netbeans.home">

<antcall target="create-tables"/>

</target>

<target name="-pre-compile" unless="netbeans.home" depends="init,build-common,copy-common-jars"/>

<target name="build-common" unless="netbeans.home" depends="init">

<iterate target="default"/>

</target>

<target name="copy-common-jars" unless="netbeans.home" depends="init">

<mkdir dir="${build.web.dir}/WEB-INF/lib"/>

<copy file="${reference.bookstore.jar}" todir="${build.web.dir}/WEB-INF/lib"/>

</target>

</project>

And the main.xml in \bp-projects looks like this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<!-- main.xml: this is the file that should be included by the project

> Everything is ok... forgot to deploy it. :-PI hate it when that happens :). Had a very similar incident yesterday. Glad you got it figured out.
