Re: Build failing - can't find SVN?

Hi Andy,

error=2 is command not found so the global path must not be working for the 
system account. You might want to check the global path variable for typos 
and check if the local path variable for your user contains the same path to 
the svn.exe file or is it only in the global path.

The global path should be picked up as soon as you create a new console which 
should be the case when you restart tomcat but then system accounts are weird 
sometimes and it is possible that all system account processes run in a child 
console and thus not picking up the changes. Restart is worth trying.

I am not sure that running Anthill under a system account is a good idea and 
would recommend that you switch to either a local or domain user. This way 
you can customize the environment for Anthill much easier (without using 
global variables and settings) and add additional protection for the system.


Regards,
Varban
