> Ant could not find the task or a class this task relies upon.
> 
> This is common and has a number of causes; the usual 
> solutions are to read the manual pages then download and
> install needed JAR files, or fix the build file: 
>  - You have misspelt 'junit'.
>    Fix: check your spelling.
>  - The task needs an external JAR file to execute
>      and this is not found at the right place in the classpath.
>    Fix: check the documentation for dependencies.
>    Fix: declare the task.
>  - The task is an Ant optional task and the JAR file and/or libraries
>      implementing the functionality were not found at the time you
>      yourself built your installation of Ant from the Ant sources.
>    Fix: Look in the ANT_HOME/lib for the 'ant-' JAR corresponding to the
>      task and make sure it contains more than merely a META-INF/MANIFEST.MF.
>      If all it contains is the manifest, then rebuild Ant with the needed
>      libraries present in ${ant.home}/lib/optional/ , or alternatively,
>      download a pre-built release version from apache.org
>  - The build file was written for a later version of Ant
>    Fix: upgrade to at least the latest release version of Ant
>  - The task is not an Ant core or optional task 
>      and needs to be declared using <taskdef>.
>  - You are attempting to use a task defined using 
>     <presetdef> or <macrodef> but have spelt wrong or not 
>    defined it at the point of use
> 
> Remember that for JAR files to be visible to Ant tasks implemented
> in ANT_HOME/lib, the files must be in the same directory or on the
> classpath
> 
> Please neither file bug reports on this problem, nor email the
> Ant mailing lists, until all of these causes have been explored,
> as this is not an Ant bug.
> 
> Total time: 2 seconds
> make: *** [install] Error 1
