Question

I’m getting the output below when I build a job. I have my build.xml in the root of my project not in /var/lib/jenkins/jobs/mbp2/workspace/build.xml… I tried to specified the path in

> Invoke ant:
> 
> Target: /home/javier/programacion/mbp/myfirm2/build.xml

but the output is the same…

I’m newbie to Jenkins and followed this tutorial (so I installed those plugins, maybe one of them is giving the error?).

Any help?

Target should be one of the ant targets (say package, compile, test) and not the location of the build file.

The build file location should be specified against Build File, which comes in the next line after Target.
