JAVAC task needs something from "endorsed"

[Christian Ruediger <ch...@gmail.com>]

I am just beginning with a tutorial where tha javac task is used.
When running it with no sources it works well.
When running it with a simple source file, ANT complains
about not finding teh "endorsed" folder.
What is this good for, and how can I fix it.

I would very much appreciate some halp in this matter, as it bothers
me for while already.
Thank you

The Task:
  <target name="compile" depends="prepare"
   description="Compile Java sources"> 
  	<!-- depends="prepare" -->

    <!-- Compile Java classes as necessary -->
    <mkdir    dir="${build.home}/WEB-INF/classes"/>
    <javac srcdir="${src.home}"
          destdir="${build.home}/WEB-INF/classes"
        debug="${compile.debug}"
     deprecation="${compile.deprecation}"
        optimize="${compile.optimize}" >
        <classpath refid="compile.classpath"/>
    </javac>

    <!-- Copy application resources -->
    <copy  todir="${build.home}/WEB-INF/classes">
      <fileset dir="${src.home}" excludes="**/*.java"/>
    </copy>

  </target>

The Error:
