ANT_HOME is set incorrectly or ant could not be located [duplicate]

Answer 1

Just sharing my experience, using cd %ANT_HOME% can point out errors in setting the variable correctly.

1. ANT_HOME should point to the parent directory, not the bin.
2. Path should include %ANT_HOME%\bin
3. The ant.bat file under bin is editable, it can be altered to print the current value for ANT_HOME for troubleshooting.
4. A system reboot is probably required for the system variables to get updated.
