first, proper way

jenkins install ant (and other tools you). on global configuration (manage jenkins), configure ant installation, selecting version , source.

then, when run ant build step, can take version, either default or 1 you've configured. when build executed, jenkins download, install, , configure particular version (within jenkins only), without affecting rest of os. installation needs happen 1 time per node, , after it's quick.

the default

that default version fallback jenkins uses when you haven't configured proper version use. tries utilize whatever available on command line, executing ant current working directory.

you said works when type ant on command line, you've got realize jenkins runs under jenkins user, not logged in user, , things ant_home , proper path ant configured user.

so prepare issue, either utilize proper way jenkins doing tool installation, or configure tool on os level jenkins user.

you can start typing: sudo su jenkins ant , seeing if works within jenkins user

ant jenkins
