Troubleshooting

Build Script users - On occasion, your site may not render in browser exactly as it did using the original code. In this case, you may have poorly constructed JavaScript or CSS in your original directory. Oftentimes, plugins are to blame.

  • Debug in your browser developer tool of choice.
  • Check your console tab within the dev tool. This should tell you on which line you can find the error.
  • Once you have successfully debugged the error within your original directory, go back to terminal and rerun the build script. Refresh the site in your browser. If it looks good, you're ready for the WWW! :)

If you are using Ubuntu Linux and receiving the following error when running ant:

Unable to locate tools.jar. Expected to find it in /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk/lib/tools.jar

See this blog post for how to resolve the problem.


If you receive the following errors:

  BUILD FAILED
  build.xml:136: The following error occurred while executing this line:
  build.xml:441: concat doesn't support the "overwrite" attribute

This is because versions of Ant prior to 1.8.2 do not support the overwrite="no" attribute.

You will need to either upgrade to a later version of Ant or remove all of the occurrences of overwrite="no" from the build.xml file.


If you're using dynamic paths to source your script files, you need to bypass the automatic script concatenation


If you get a java exception during js.minify, please see this thread and note. Basically you need to recompile one file in the tools directory to use your local version of Java.
