null pointer exception when I issue command line ad-gen statement

[kare...@gmail.com]

from looking at the info statement during the creating the framework
step is not reading the properties for the depots_base_dir=null and
the antdepo_base_dir - when or where are these properties defined?

Here is the actual output:

[dev@localhost ~]$ ad-gen module --action add --module Updater -p
