Getting Error running javac.exe compiler message, while using Ant in Eclipse

Question

When I run my Ant build in Eclipse, I\'m getting the following error message and the Ant build fails.

Error Message: Error running javac.exe compile

Answer 1

Configuring eclipse to point to JDK instead of JRE did not work for me. With further investigation, I solved this problem by stopping the build process from forking. In your build.xml, remove the attribute fork from tag.
