Jenkins: about the build.xml path

Question

I get the output below when creating a job. I have build.xml in the root of my project not in /var/lib/jenkins/jobs/mbp2/workspace/build.xml ... I tried to specify the path in

 > Invoke ant: > > Target: /home/javier/programacion/mbp/myfirm2/build.xml 

but the result is the same ...

I am new to Jenkins and follow this tutorial (so I installed these plugins, maybe one of them gives an error?).

Any help?

Answer 1

Target should be one of the ant targets (say package , compile , test ) and not the location of the build file.

The location of the assembly file should be specified in the Build File , which appears on the next line after Target .
