Hi. Thanks.

That probably is the explanation. I first tried to install LAMS on c:\Program Files\LAMS and the installer said spaces weren't permitted so I used c:\LAMS.

Java is installed on Program Files. I don't think I gave any My Documents paths to the installer. So I'm not sure where the Documents and Settings came from.

Best,

It is a problem with environment variables that reference My Documents. I changed newant.bat to @echo on and found this:

C:\lams\apache-ant-1.6.5\bin>if "yes" == "no" goto runAntNoClasspath
and was unexpected at this time.

C:\lams\apache-ant-1.6.5\bin>if not ".;"C:\Documents and Settings\Ken Kahn\My Documents\eclipse\MoPiX2\src\com.kisgergely.gwt.canvas.jar";c:\program files\junit-4.4.jar;C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.6.0_06\lib\ext\QTJava.zip"=="" goto runAntWithClasspath

C:\lams\apache-ant-1.6.5\bin>

The installation problems on my first computer were due to the value of CLASSPATH that included a quoted file from My Documents. That is where the "and" error message originated. After editing CLASSPATH it installed fine. Working fine now on computer #1. Will look into computer #2 soon (service not created problem).

Thanks for everyone's help.
