Question

Answer 1

In addition to what has been said, I had two more problems :

1) The spaces in the paths were causing trouble : I replaced the Program Files folder this way :

Program Files = Progra~1

Program Files (x86) = Progra~2

2) cscript.exe was not recognized so I added the System32 folder to the PATH.

Answer 2

For me the problem was the variables for ANT_HOME and JAVA_HOME. I found different descriptions on how they should look (eg. %JAVA_HOME%\bin). It dident work for me check the pics out for how to set the variables correctly. Also put the reference to C:\Java\jdk1.6.0_31\bin and C:\Java\apache-ant-1.8.4\bin on your path variable.

Take note that you may have installed jdk and ant in different directories than i did, but the above is how they should look.

You may want to check out my supplemental to the getting started guide:

You will need to make sure you can execute javac as well and that your JAVA_HOME is set correctly.

Don't worry about the ant error. As long as it is found from the command line it will work properly when launched from a directory with a build.xml.

Answer 4

Ensure that you don't use a dash ("-") or a space in the directory that you are creating your project. As well, I would ensure that you have the ANT_HOME variable pointing to the correct directory. Simon's blog points this out, but you can get slightly more info (on this particular thing) from my post here: installing Cordova\PhoneGap .

I use the ant directory found in eclipse\plugins\org.apache.ant... Perhaps your ant directory in the sys variables is to a different ant installation? Not sure if that would be a problem.
