[clay_rowland]

I am receiving the following error trying to start the demo.  has anyone encountered this or know of what i may be doing wrong?

The <sql> type doesn't support the nested "javaresource" element

i am using tomcat 6.0.26 and have tried both h2 and mysql.  below is the output of the build.

thanks.

What version of ANT are you using ?

I think I had a similar problem and after updating to the latest ANT (1.8.1) it was OK.

I had to update various things, so it could have been something else. But I know I had to upgrade ANT to solve some issue with the demo build.

thanks for the reply!  i had an old version of Ant installed.
