Why am I getting the error "Only antlib URLs can be located only from a URI, not a URI" when I try to run hibernation tools in my build.xml file

Question

I am trying to run hibernate tools in an ant build to generate ddl from JPA annotations. ant dies in the taskdef tag. I tried with ant 1.7, 1.6.5 and 1.6 to no avail. I tried both in the eclipse and outside. I tried including all hbn banks in the hibernate-tools path, not. Please note that I based my build file in this post:

Hibernate JPA for DDL Command Line Tools

I am running eclipse 3.4 with WTP 3.0.1 and MyEclipse 7.1 on Ubuntu 8.

build.xml

<project name="generateddl" default="generate-ddl">

<path id="hibernate-tools">
    <pathelement location="../libraries/hibernate-tools/hibernate-tools.jar" />
    <pathelement location="../libraries/hibernate-tools/bsh-2.0b1.jar" />
    <pathelement location="../libraries/hibernate-tools/freemarker.jar" />
    <pathelement location="../libraries/jtds/jtds-1.2.2.jar" />
    <pathelement location="../libraries/hibernate-tools/jtidy-r8-20060801.jar" />

</path>

<taskdef classname="org.hibernate.tool.ant.HibernateToolTask" classpathref="hibernate-tools"/>

<target name="generate-ddl" description="Export schema to DDL file"> 
<!-- compile model classes before running hibernatetool -->

    <!-- task definition; project.class.path contains all necessary libs 
    <taskdef name="hibernatetool" classname="org.hibernate.tool.ant.HibernateToolTask" classpathref="project.class.path" />
    -->

    <hibernatetool destdir="sql"> 

        <!-- check that directory exists -->
        <jpaconfiguration persistenceunit="default" />

        <classpath>

            <dirset dir="WebRoot/WEB-INF/classes">
                <include name="**/*"/>
            </dirset>
        </classpath>

        <hbm2ddl outputfilename="schemaexport.sql" format="true" export="false" drop="true" />
    </hibernatetool>
</target>

Error message (ant -v):
