Running JUnit test by Ant throws Exception, but running by eclipse works fine

[Franz]

Hello,

I tried the Java-sample under http://seleniumhq.org/docs/03_webdriver.html
and saved it as a JUnit test.

When starting the test from eclipse as "Run As > JUnit test"
everything works fine. But when I start it from ant, a new window of
Firefox appears and after 45 seconds an Exception is thrown:

I am using Windows 7, Selenium 2.1, Ant 1.8.2 and Firefox 5.

Any ideas, why this exception occurs and how I can fix it?

Thnaks in advance,
Franz

It doesn't look like you have Se 2.1.0 in your classpath, but an older version. Check your jars in your classpath and make sure only 2.1.0 is there.

Hi Luke,

that's it. I had older libraries of selenium in my lib-directory!

Now it works like a charm.

Thank you,
Franz
