I have migrated a project from 5.0 and attempted to build it under 5.5 and the Build Project task does not work. When I turned on the verbose ant trace, the 5.5 build is looking for either the property do.war.package.without.custom.manifest or do.war.package.with.custom.manifest. Once I had set this property in the build.properties file, the build of the .war file progressed correctly.
Tomas, is this issue still valid?
I'm sorry but we support this scenario no more. I've tried to create Web project in NB 5.5.1 and then I've opened it and built it in NB 6.0 daily build without any errors. So I suggest to close this issue as WORKSFORME.
