Question

I can’t get either the FTP nor the MySQL Task working for Ant 1.8.2 on Mac OSX 10.7.

I tried everything I found on this site and everything I found via Google.
It seems I need a JDCB Driver for the MySQL Task, but I don’t get how to install or where to put it.
For the FTP Task ant commons library is needed, which I copied to lib folder of my ant installation.
The library is loaded as diagnostic mode says, but it is not working.

Build.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <project name="Testjob" default="build">   <target name="build" depends="sql,ftp"/>

  <property name="sql.driver" value="com.mysql.jdbc.Driver"/>   <property name="sql.url" value="jdbc:mysql://xxx.de"/>   <property name="sql.user" value="xxx"/>   <property name="sql.pass" value="xxx"/>

  <target name="sql">

      password="${sql.pass}" >

FTP-Error

BUILD FAILED
/Users/Shared/Jenkins/Home/jobs/Testjob/workspace/build.xml:25: Problem: failed to create task or type ftp
Cause: the class org.apache.tools.ant.taskdefs.optional.net.FTP was not found.
        This looks like one of Ant's optional components.
Action: Check that the appropriate optional JAR exists in
        -/usr/share/ant/lib
        -/var/root/.ant/lib
        -a directory added on the command line with the -lib argument

Do not panic, this is a common problem.
The commonest cause is a missing JAR.

This is not a bug; it is a configuration problem

Answer 1

SQL

You need to supply the jdbc driver for the sql task. Supply a classpath that points to your jdbc driver (which you probably downloaded from here)

From the Docs:

<sql
    driver="org.database.jdbcDriver"
    url="jdbc:database-url"
    userid="sa"
    password="pass"
    src="data.sql"
    print="yes"
    output="outputfile.txt"
    >
<classpath>
    <pathelement location="/some/jdbc.jar"/>
</classpath>
</sql>

FTP

You need apache-commons-net-2.0.jar and jakarta-oro-2.0.8.jar as listed this blogpost and in the docs(Although the doc says 1.4 should be enough)
