RE: loading ANT propetyfile using JVMarg attribute

 

you need to use the property element instead of the jvmarg element.

 

http://cruisecontrol.sourceforge.net/main/configxml.html#antbuilder

 

  <ant ...>

    <property name="propertyfile" value="local.properties" />

  </ant>

 

(You want "java org.apache.tools.ant.Main -Dpropertyfile=local.properties ..." but using jvmarg gives you "java -Dpropertyfile=local.properties org.apache.tools.ant.Main ...". )
