Hi,

i guess you need an svn.exe (Subversion) in your PATH - see e.g. http://www.sliksvn.com/en/download

Hello,
I also got the same problem while running through command Line, but when tried with eclipse the application runs properly.

Try setting up the project in eclipse and run build-tomcat(default) target to create the war file in tomcat.
and start-tomcat-webclient for running the application start-tomcat-webclient-debug for debugging.

You can go through the following links to setup project in eclipse

Maybe check your version of ant - 1.6.5 works fine for me (and obviously knows about dirname…)

Thanks.

Download ant
set ANT_HOME as environment variable and try

I am using ant-1.7.0. You can try with any 1.7.0. or 1.6.5

nirvanvjain, Please avoid hijacking other's threads and cross posting.

I'd reccomend reading the wiki, buying a book or attending an alfresco training course to get started.
