If I understand correctly  you assumed that -v is the  print version  command  Check the documentation  that is not the case -- instead ant -v is running ant build in verbose mode  So ant is trying to perform your build  based on the build xml file  which is obviously not there   To answer your question explicitly  there is probably nothing wrong with both the system nor ant installation

may be you can specify where the buildfile is located and then invoke desired action   Eg     ant -file  BuildfileLocation build xml  -v

You should use ant -version command instead   The -v option is equivalent of -verbose option   See Command-line Options Summary

There may be two situations    No build xml is present in the current directory Your ant configuration file has diffrent name    Please see and confim the same  In the case one you have to find where your build file is located and in the case 2  You will have to run command ant -f  lt your build file name gt

You have invoked Ant with the verbose  -v  mode but the default buildfile build xml does not exist   Nor have you specified any other buildfile for it to use     I would say your Ant installation is fine
