title: Ant isn't being recognized as a command. Ant 1.7.1
body: <p>I been doing everything I can to get this resolved. Although I cannot seem to figure this out. </p>
  
  <p>First I want to share what I have read and tried:</p>
  
  <p>I read this post: <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/9262712/ant-is-not-recognized-as-an-internal-or-external-command#">‘ant’ is not recognized as an internal or external command</a></p>
  
  <p>I also read the documentation: <a href="http://ant.apache.org/manual/install.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">ant.apache.org/manual/install.html</a></p>
  
  <p>Although "ant" is still not recognizing as a command.</p>
  
  <p>Here is a screenshot of ANT_HOME:</p>

  <p>Everything seems to be correct. Although I cannot figure out the issue why its not running as a command. Any help is appreciated. </p>
