Description Hani Nadra CLA 2011-05-04 19:56:44 EDT 
The scripts under plugins/org.apache.ant_1.7.1.v20100518-1145/bin should have execute permissions in the packaged eclipse tar.

The missing permissions cause the following error when running the exec ant task with vmlauncher="false":

Execute failed: java.io.IOException: Cannot run program "path-to-eclipse/plugins/org.apache.ant_1.7.1.v20100518-1145/bin/antRun": error=13, Permission denied

The error can be reproduced by running the following ant task in eclipse on Linux or Mac:

<exec executable="/bin/sh" vmlauncher="true">
    <arg line="-c 'echo from exec.....'" />
</exec>

Thanks!

Correction... the ant task should have vmlauncher="false" to see the error:

<exec executable="/bin/sh" vmlauncher="false">
    <arg line="-c 'echo from exec.....'" />
</exec>
