Hudson keeps failing with Phing AND Ant. Any hints?

Question

Let's just skip right to the good stuff...

errors I'm getting from the console when running Ant:

phpunit:
     [exec] PHPUnit 3.2.16 by Sebastian Bergmann.
     [exec] 
     [exec] Class /var/lib/hudson/jobs/Goals/workspace/Goals/AllTests could not be found in /var/lib/hudson/jobs/Goals/workspace/Goals/AllTests.php.
     [exec] Result: 1

     [exec] Result: 2

phpcs:
     [exec] ERROR: The file "/var/lib/hudson/jobs/Goals/workspace/Goals/build/logs/checkstyle.xml" does not exist.

And when running Phing:

[xUnit] The plugin hasn't been performed correctly: java.io.IOException: No test report files were found. Configuration error?
GitAPI created
[workspace] $ /usr/bin/git tag -d hudson-Goals-31
[workspace] $ /usr/bin/git tag -a -f -m "Hudson Build #31" hudson-Goals-31-FAILURE

So, any ideas what's going wrong? I get it to build just fine locally. On my VPS we get all this mess.

Looks like you have some path issues. You path /var/lib/hudson/jobs/Goals/workspace/Goals/build/logs/phpdepend.xml seems to be a file, not a path.

[exec] Invalid directory '/var/lib/hudson/jobs/Goals/workspace/Goals/build/logs/phpdepend.xml' added.
