Problems with CruiseControl.NET

I've been trying to use CC.NET with Vault but keep getting this error

Please can anyone help with this issue.

Tim,

To narrow the possibilities, can you answer these questions for me?

What version of Vault are you running?
What version/build of CC.NET are you running?
What does your vault server log show when one of these errors occur? (%windir%\temp\sgvault\sgvault.log)

TimK · Post by **TimK** » Mon Jan 16, 2006 9:15 am

Ian,

Vault - 3.1.6
CC.Net - 1.0.0.1251
Server log - I'm connecting to your vaultpub.sourcegear.com so would the log files be on your server?

ian_sg · Post by **ian_sg** » Mon Jan 16, 2006 9:48 am

Ah, I didn't notice that!

We use code from vaultpub in our own builds and haven't had any trouble. I also don't see any errors in the logs on that server today.

The problem is that there's no actual error message here, simply "operation failed." CC.NET invokes the command-line client, can you try running the command that it runs to see if we get better error information? I've tried running it myself here, and can't get it to fail. This is the command:

Code: Select all

"c:\program files\sourcegear\vault client\vault.exe" history $ -excludeactions label -rowlimit 0 -begindate 2006-01-15T22:48:40 -enddate 2006-01-15T22:49:59 -host vaultpub.sourcegear.com -user guest -password guest -repository Build_Tool_Integration

If possible, we'll get the most accurate reproduction if you run it from your CC.NET machine.

I ran the command line and got the following error

<vault>
<error>
Proxy Authentication failed.
</error>
<exception>

You've got an http proxy that requires authentication between you and vaultpub.sourcegear.com.

While Vault's command-line client can handle this, CC.NET currently cannot. You would have to script the retrieval of this code outside of CruiseControl.NET, using the vault command-line client directly. If you want to go this route, you'll want to look at the proxyserver, proxyport, proxyuser, proxypassword, and proxydomain options. (You can type vault help history at a command line for more on those options.)

I've added this issue to CruiseControl.NET's bug-tracker (http://jira.public.thoughtworks.org/browse/CCNET-638) for inclusion in a future release.

OK, I've changed the location to my local vault server to avoid the proxy issues and get the following

FROM CC.NET CLIENT

The fact that it works "normally" but fails when run by CC.NET makes me think it may be a permissions issue. Are you running CC.NET as a service, and if so under what account?

It may also help to turn the CC.NET's logging to the maximum verbosity, in search of the elusive actual error message.

TimK · Post by **TimK** » Mon Jan 16, 2006 11:55 am

Heres and interesting thing.

If I run the CC.net service as a local account it does not work. But if I run it as a local account and tick the box "Allow service to interact with desktop" it works.

However, when I do this I get a commandline box popup and if I close it everything stops working.

Any thoughts?

The local system account may not have all the necessary permissions required by CC.NET. I think we're out of Vault-specific territory at this point.
I can tell you that in our own use, CC.NET is running as a local administrative account (but not the local system account), and we've had no trouble.

I am totally new to Cruise Control.
I have installed Cruise Control for DotNet.
I am using 1.4.0 version of Torroise SVN.
My ccnet.config file is like this

<cruisecontrol>
<project name="Supplier Review Exchange">
<workingDirectory>C:\CcnetSRE\VKE\Code</workingDirectory>
<artifactDirectory>C:\CcnetSRE\VKE</artifactDirectory>
<modificationDelaySeconds>2</modificationDelaySeconds>
<sourcecontrol type="svn">
<trunkUrl>http://path/Code</trunkUrl>
<workingDirectory>c:\CcnetSRE</workingDirectory>
<executable>C:\Program Files\TortoiseSVN\bin\TortoiseProc.exe</executable>
<username>username</username>
<password>password</password>
<autoGetSource>true</autoGetSource>
</sourcecontrol>
<state type="state" directory="C:\CcnetSRE" />
</project>
</cruisecontrol>

When I am running server I am getting the following exception

2007-01-17 11:02:50,476 [Supplier Review Exchange:ERROR] Exception: Unable to load the output from svn:

Looks like you're using CruiseControl.NET with Subversion. We're not the vendor for either of these.

Your best bet for support would be the ccnet-user mailing list. Info on that is here: http://confluence.public.thoughtworks.o ... ling+Lists

You might also take a look at our Parabuild at http://www.viewtier.com/products/parabuild.htm . It works with Vault out of the box.

Hi,

Just to comment and say that I experienced this problem too. It was because the repository path I was trying to check out had spaces in it. Once I quoted the string in ccnet.config, it was fine:

Code: Select all

    <sourcecontrol type="vault" autoGetSource="true">
      <executable>D:\apps (x86)\SourceGear\Fortress Client\vault.exe</executable>
      <username>build_user</username>
      <password>build_pass</password>
      <host>host.domain.com</host>
      <repository>Initial Repository</repository>
      <folder>"$/Build Scripts"</folder>
      <ssl>false</ssl>
      <timeout units="minutes">10</timeout>
      <useWorkingDirectory>false</useWorkingDirectory>
      <workingDirectory>D:\Build_Scripts</workingDirectory>
    </sourcecontrol>

I guess the plugin could put quotes around the repository name as well as the folder path.

I'm getting other build errors now, but unfortunately that seems to be down to bad coding...

Hope that helps someone else.

Regards,

Tom
