Grouper Users - Open Discussion List

[Keith Hazelton <>]

I did the original install with the Grouper installer.

I'm in /opt/grouper-2.1.2/grouper-ui-2.1.2 

When I do
export ANT_HOME=/opt/grouper-2.1.2//apache-ant-1.8.2/bin/
ant war
... I get ...
"could not find the main class: org.apache.tools.ant.launcher.Launcher"

When I do
export ANT_HOME=/usr/share/ant
/opt/grouper-2.1.2/apache-ant-1.8.2/bin/ant war
...  I get ...
"Permission denied."

     --Keith (clearly flailing but not quitting)
