Hi, I am using Ant for builds but as per version 2.0, I am not able to write proper command for that. Currently, I’m using this command ant -lib lib/ Build But it saying on commiting /bin/bash: ant: command not found Please help me. ---

Hello, I think what is likely happening is you are installing `ant` in one `run` statement and utilizing it in another. In your `config.yml`, every `run` uses `/bin/bash -eo pipefail` as it’s default shell, which does not possess the `--login` switch. [https://circleci.com/docs/2.0/configuration-reference/#default-shell-options](https://circleci.com/docs/2.0/configuration-reference/#default-shell-options) You can modify the shell so that it is a `login` shell as stated in the docs above, or run the install and following command in a single, multi-line run statement. ---

Hi Kyle, Thanks for your response but That could not work for me. As I am using this command for 1.0 working fine for me test: override: - ant -lib lib/ Build: timeout: 600 How can I convert it into 2.0 ---

Hmm, do you need to install Ant explicitly? If not, find out where it is being installed (e.g. if it is part of the JDK) and call it `/with/the/full/path/to/ant`. You can get an SSH session on a failed build to have a poke around, if that is helpful. ---

No no, it’s having trouble finding `ant` itself. You need to find that binary, assuming it is installed at all. ---

You can see in screenshot, **circleci/java:8-jdk** could not be installed. You know, ant could not be run without **java jre**. ---

I am not sure what you are saying. Are you saying that you _know_ this container has a copy of Ant? I do not share your confidence, and I think the next thing that **you need to do** is to SSH into the running container and have a look. Would you try that now? (One important thing with CI, and indeed coming here for help, is that folks with a problem need to be persistent and highly self-directed. Statements that amount to “it does not work” are not likely to attract more assistance. 🙂) ---

Oh, just spotted this: ```auto - image: circleci/node:4.8.2 - image: circleci/java:8-jdk ``` This means: - Node is your primary build container - Java JDK is your secondary build container, which you can contact over HTTP (if there is a server running) So, the question is, does the `circleci/node` image contain Ant? My guess is that the JDK image is spinning up and then doing nothing. You may find some benefit in explaining what you’re trying to do with these images. ---

Thanks! I got the hint to solve this issue. I need to user docker image `circleci/java:8-jdk`, which will make environment to run `ant`. And to work with the node module, I will manually install node. Now, updated `config.yml` ``` version: 2.0 jobs: build: docker: - image: circleci/openjdk:8-jdk steps: - checkout - run: name: Download Node command: curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_6.x | sudo -E bash - run: name: Install Node command: sudo apt-get install -y nodejs - run: name: Install -g gulp command: sudo npm install -g gulp - run: name: Install -g bower command: sudo npm install -g bower - run: name: npm Install command: sudo npm install working_directory: src/project - run: name: bower Install command: bower install working_directory: src/project - run: name: ant -lib lib/ -buildfile build/build.xml command: ant -lib lib/ -buildfile build/build.xml ``` ---
