CreateProcess error=2 running javadoc from Ant

Question

Can anyone tell me why I am getting this error message

Buildfile: C:\\Users\\Tara\\workspace\\Testing\\build.xml
doc:
   [delete] Deleting directory C:\\Users\\         


        

Answer 1

Providing you have a jdk installed and added to Eclipse:

1. Windows->Preferences Java->Installed
2. JREs->Add

You can then

1. Right click on build.xml
2. Select Run As->Ant Build... note the ellipsis!
3. Switch to JRE tab
4. Select the jdk from the list
