Apache NetBeans 9.0 ant build failed

I was trying to upgrade my NetBeans to 9.0 following this link https://netbeans.apache.org/download/index.html#releases These are the steps I followed

  1. Updated my brew using brew update
  2. Install ant using brew install ant
  3. move to directory incubator-netbeans and run command ant

Step three (3) start to build NetBeans modules, suddenly I got an error message that build failed. I have tried to resolve this problem and also tried checking SO if someone is having similar issue but to no avail. Thanks

NB: I'm using Java 8

Error gotten

Solution

  • I finally solved this issue using the following steps:

    1. Whenever I'm faced with build failed, I re-run the ant.
    2. I closed all NetBeans instances present and re-run again
