Build android application for release using ant in eclipse

When signing and building my application for release through ant in eclipse I am getting an error.

I am using the ant task that comes with the android sdk.

Keystore file, alias, pass are defined in ant.properties.

BUILD FAILED

C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk-windows\tools\ant\build.xml:981: The following error occurred while executing this line:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk-windows\tools\ant\build.xml:995: Execute failed: java.io.IOException: Cannot run program "jarsigner.exe" (in directory "C:\dev\projects\sample1"): CreateProcess error=2, The system cannot find the file specified

Followed instructions here: http://developer.android.com/guide/developing/building/building-cmdline.html

It's looking for the Jar signer in the wrong location.

Might be worth checking your path environment variable is set up correctly (so that it can find jarsigner.exe)

You need to have the folder YOUR_JDK\bin in your path

(YOUR_JDK being the folder where you have installed the Java JDK)
