Description David Williams

I tried "default ant" (didn't find anything), I tried "ant 1.8.2", didn't find anything, and finally used the "self install ant 1.7.1" and that seems to be progressing. 

I _think_ with what we use right now, 1.7.1 is probably ok ... but, concerned we'll outgrow it before long and use something 1.8.x specific ... so, just as well install the latest, 1.8.4. 

Thanks,

Now that /shared is available, can you use hudson-perf1:/shared/common/apache-ant-1.8.4 ?

Probably. Will try later today. (But, best/easiest if the hudson slave itself knew "Ant 1.8.4" meant "/shared/common/apache-ant-1.8.4" ... I'm sure that's configurable somewhere, but not sure where, right off).

I was able to configure the slave to tell it "Ant 1.8.2" tools was located at 
"/shared/common/apache-ant-1.8.4" 

And it was happy. 

I used "Ant 1.8.2" because the tools presented are a "pre-canned" list, and Ant 1.8.2 was as high as it went. 

And, Saturday, before the Sunday AM restart ... I may look to see if "master" can be configured with an "Ant 1.8.4" tool (and location) and if so then the slaves will likely present "Ant 1.8.4" in their list of options.

I could not do this on Saturday evening, because web interface was frozen, for me. But on Sunday, after the weekly restart, on master configuration, I could add "Ant 1.8.4" and point it to /shared/common/apache-ant-1.8.4/
and then on "performance node" I could use "Ant 1.8.4" (I think I could have used it "directly", but redefined it anyway, partially because I wanted to delete the "ant 1.8.2" that pointed to /shared/common/apache-ant-1.8.4/.
