title: java.net.MalformedURLException: no protocol error
body: <p>I got this error on running ant for building the java code on Ubuntu. The application has to be deployed in the Tomcat web-app directory. When I run ant in my source directory, it builds all the files and deploys the application in the web-app directory. But, before completion it terminates with an error. The errors which I got are listed below.</p>
