Here is an overview of the issue:
---------------------------------------------------------------------
        Key: FOR-116
    Summary: Forrest fails to execute, missing "var" task
       Type: Bug

     Status: Unassigned
   Priority: Major

    Project: Forrest
  Component: shbat distribution - Forrest CLI
   Versions:
             HEAD

   Assignee: 
   Reporter: Florian G. Haas

    Created: Sat, 14 Feb 2004 12:58 PM
    Updated: Sat, 14 Feb 2004 12:58 PM
Environment: Linux 2.4.24 on Debian sarge, JDK 1.4.2

Description:
Forrest builds OK, but subsequently invoking forrest (run|site|webapp|war) fails after emitting the following messages:


Apache Forrest.  Run 'forrest -projecthelp' to list options

Buildfile: /home/fgh/workspace/xml-forrest/build/dist/shbat/bin/../forrest.build.xml
Could not load definitions from resource

It appears that the "var" task is defined in forrest.build.xml by a "taskdef resource=", for which the corresponding resource 
(net/sf/antcontrib/antcontrib.properties) is enclosed in tools/ant/lib/ant-contrib-0.6.jar. This JAR file is not being picked up by the Forrest classpath due to an incorrect classpath entry in forrest.build.xml.
