Thanks. That problem ended up being due to the way Fedora Core 2 doesn't allow you to change where ant is located. I had to put ant-contrib-0.6.jar in the directory where Fedora thought it should be.
However, i have a new problem
.
Now I am doing it in Red Hat 4
When I run ant prepare-db I get this:

I really have no idea what I am doing wrong, thanks for the help, I'm really trying to work through how to install lams. I managed to install it on a server a few months ago, but it had nothing on it. This one has tomcat and java 1.5 jdk installed. Do I need to go to 1.4.2 sdk?
Thanks
