Perhaps JAVA_HOME does not point to the JDK

Note: I've just copied part of the stackTrace you got.

The JDK is the directory that contains your Java Development Kit. Specifically, it contains the Java compiler (javac). The top level of your JDK should look similar to this (from Windows):

Code:

C:\> [B]echo %JAVA_HOME%[/B]
C:\j2sdk1.5.0_04

C:\> [B]dir %JAVA_HOME%[/B]
 Volume in drive C has no label.
 Volume Serial Number is 9023-0CA4

 Directory of C:\j2sdk1.5.0_04
