Assuming you are running Linux or similar: as with any executable file 
in Unix, either the $ANT_HOME/bin directory needs to be in your path and 
"ant" set executable, or you must call it by using "sh" or specifying 
the directory it is in.

$ pwd
/usr/local/apache-ant-1.6.5/bin
$ ls
ant      antenv.cmd  antRun.pl            lcp.bat    runrc.cmd
ant.bat  antRun      complete-ant-cmd.pl  runant.pl
ant.cmd  antRun.bat  envset.cmd           runant.py
$ ls -og ant
-rwxr-xr-x    1     8837 Jun  2 14:15 ant
$ ant
bash: ant: command not found
$ sh ant
Buildfile: build.xml does not exist!
Build failed
$ ./ant
Buildfile: build.xml does not exist!
Build failed
