The command Ant is either false written or unable to find

[Joga Krish, módosítva 11 év-val korábban]

Hallo Everyone,

I want to create a Theme using liferay.
In the command prompt I have navigated to the SDK and to themes directory and entered the following command

create.bat deep-blue "Deep Blue"

and i get an error
"The command Ant is either false written or unable to find".

I am unable to find the way out . Can anyone please help me.


Regards,
Krishna.

Did you install apache ant on your environment?

[Joga Krish, módosítva 11 év-val korábban]

I have installed Apache maven.

In the installation process of Liferay+Eclipse+ IDE it did not explain or suggest to add Apache ant.

If you're using Liferay IDE, why are you executing ant command instead of just creating theme from the Liferay IDE GUI?

HI

I am not sure whether am executing ant command .

http://www.liferay.com/documentation/liferay-portal/6.0/development/-/ai/creating-a-theme

I am following the description in the above link to create a theme in liferay.

As it mentioned in the description, I have created a new project in liferay and trying to run this command

create.bat "deep-blue" Deep Blue
and I get the problem

Joga Krish:

Trust us, you are. The shell/batch scripts are helpers for invoking ant. You need ant if you're using the SDK.

http://www.liferay.com/documentation/liferay-portal/6.0/development/-/ai/initial-set-8explains
that you need Ant 1.7.0 or better on your system first

then if you are using the IDE you will not need to run commands anyway (see
IDE documentation)

Just for you information, if you want to use maven, refer to the following blog. Unfortunately, information on using maven is still not included in Liferay's document yet.
