Hi,

I’d like to run Clover ETL through ANT tasks,

I used the following syntax but I wasn’t able to load the plugins:

And I got the following error:

JAVA\_HOME=D:\riskpro3\rp\bin\jdk  
ANT\_HOME=D:\riskpro3\rp\bin\ant  
Buildfile: D:\riskpro3\rp\bin\run-etl.xml

It seems that plugins are not loaded.  
Do you have any idea how to do that?

Thanks

Hello Jerome,  
you need to pass _-plugins_ and _${plugins.path}_ as two arguments, i.e:

```auto
<target name="runETL">
<java classname="org.jetel.main.runGraph" classpathref="classpath" >
<arg value="-plugins"/>
<arg value="${plugins.path}"/>
<arg value="${graph.path}"/>
</java>
</target>

```
