Ummm i have never used Apache ANT before but some mistakes i've seen from you so far is that you think the start link starts at http://localhost/ apanel/.... but it doesnt. Thats the link to the Admin Panel! Not the main WWW link. The main WWW link is http://localhost/ .... If you have a direcotry in the W:/www folder names Blah, then to enter the Blah directory, go to http://localhost/Blah So if you installed the program under that directory, then that link is right... You said you got Tomcat working, but about Ant i do not know... Never used it.....
