Unable to run the demo setup

[bpmdesinger]

I have downloaded the Activity 5.10 zip file and then i have downloaded and configured the Apache ANT  and i test it and it worked successfully.
But i am unable to run the demo file as specified in this link http://activiti.org/userguide/#demo.setup

if i type the following using the cmd command line:-

C:\activiti-5.10\activiti-5.10\setup>ant demo.start‍

I will get the following error:-

'ant' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.‍

Can anyone help me in identifying what is the problem?

Looks like the ant binary is not on your PATH.

Try:

c:\> set PATH=PATHTOANT;%PATH%

Where PATHTOANT is where the Ant binary lives, possibly "C:\Program Files\Ant\bin" or something similar. Then try running the "ant demo.start" command.

If that works, you can make the change permanent by adding it to the environment variables settings. Control Panel -> System -> Advanced -> Environment Variables.

Good luck…
