I am trying to integrate clearcase with Hudson, but auto build is not triggering while merge or checkout.
Created dynamic view "sundaa4_Hudson_Test" and gave the config spec which I used in clearcase
When I gave manual build its showing error
Workspace is not creating in path .hudson\jobs\Hudson_Testing_Sijith\workspace
PLease give some input on this
Make sure your config spec ends with a selection rule like:
element * /main/LATEST
Or it won't select much, which would explain why Hudson doesn't create anything (it doesn't detect any change).
A cleartool lsview which returns a line starting with '*' means the dynamic view is already started: no need to repeat multiple cleartool startview.
Make sure your View root does exists: usually, the MVFS drive for dynamic view is M:\, not K:\.

When browsing files in the Sublime sidebar, I would like to quickly access the commands available in the context menu via shortcuts. E.g. Delete file, rename file/folder, new file/folder.
(FYI: super+N is not an ideal solution for creating new files - it isn't context aware and will usually choose an inappropriate default location).
You can enable command logging by inserting the following into the console sublime.log_commands(True). This will give you the commands and arguments being executed. You can then create a key binding with the appropriate command. My guess is the commands will use some sort of path, so you may need to write a small plugin to inject the correct paths for the various commands.
For new file creation specifically, you may want to take a look at AdvancedNewFile. Disclaimer - I'm the current maintainer of the plugin. I've tried to make it a more flexible than it originally was, with regards to specifying where to create the file. Though if you do decide to use it and have feature request, feel free to create an issue about it.
I am porting over an MSBuild script from CCnet to run in Jenkins. The MSBuild project is used to create a deployment package. I would rather have Jenkins drive this process itself but that's a longer term aim.
The problem i am having is (as in the title) when we try and use the HgPull target, from the MSBuild mecurial task (http://msbuildhg.codeplex.com/) we get the error message
HgProcessException: The command hg.exe is not available [Path to project]
I have seen on the project web site that someone solved it by adding the LibraryLocation proeprty to the target but that seems to have made no difference. My target currently looks like this:
Target Name="UpdateSources">
<HgPull
LibraryLocation="C:\Program Files\TortoiseHg\hg.exe"
Force="true"
Update="true"
LocalPath="$(SourcePath)"
/>
<HgUpdate
LibraryLocation="C:\Program Files\TortoiseHg\hg.exe"
Clean="true"
LocalPath="$(SourcePath)"
/>
I'm rather at a loss. Please let me know if you need any more information added to this post to solve this issue. I'm really quite new to MSBuild so really not sure where to start investigating this.
EDIT:
One thing i forgot to mention was that i have tried running the MSbuild command in a console window on the build server and still get the same result. This is really odd given it works fine in CCNet, what magic is CCNet doing to make this command work?
This is now resolved, unfortunately i'm not sure what changes i made to correct these. I believe it may have been down to path separators and whether they where trailing or not in another part of the config file. It does so annoy me with the lack of resilience/consistency between applications where you need to specify paths with/without trailing slashes.
Just a thought, but try adding 'C:\Program Files\TortoiseHg' to your system path. Maybe CCNet has it specified somewhere that Jenkins doesn't have access to.
Also, just for sanity's sake, verify that hg.exe actually exists at that location.
I have kind of an interesting problem...
So I'm trying to run a build every time I see a change on a directory in my SCM in Hudson. However, I don't need to pull the directory to run my script. Is there any way to check if there's a change in a directory, but don't pull it?
In addition, there is another directory which I do need to pull from Hudson at the same time. So basically I want something like:
On change of directory A or B:
pull directory B only
run script
I was told there was functionality like this in Hudson, but I can't find it. Any suggestions? Thanks for the help!
In case anyone is interested, I was able to accomplish this with just Hudson and Perforce.
When using Perforce as the SCM (don't know about the others) there is a 'Use View Mask' checkbox. Checking that give you the ability to choose which directories/files in Perforce to poll without actually pulling those files. For example, I had in my view:
//depot/my_script
I didn't want my script to run automatically when I had a new version, so I put it int o the "Poll Exclude File(s) text box:
//depot/my_script
Which pulls the latest version of my script. Then I checked the Use View Mask checkbox and put:
//depot/my_code_to_compile/
into the View Mask box.
To make Perforce poll for changes, I just checked the "Poll SCM" in build triggers and then made it check every minute. (by inserting "* * * * *" into the Scheduler box)
So to sum up, with the variables set as above, my Hudson job had the following behavior:
check for changes every minute
On changes to //depot/my_code_to_compile/, the Hudson job will run
On changes to //depot/my_script, nothing will happen
The job will pull changes to my_script, but will download nothing from //depot/my_code_to_compile/.
I think you need to install the FSTrigger Plugin for this functionality. To what the wiki pages show this is supported in Jenkins, I am not sure about Hudson compatibility.
We are using base clear case with dynamic views on Linux.
In our environment some custom script is responsible, so ct mkview is not working.
I need either
- provide to Hudson plugin a custom script for creating a view
- tell to plugin to reuse existing view, w/o calling to ct mkview
I did not find any of these options.
Can you help me?
Here are my current settings:
Thank you
As I have detailed in "Hudson integration with UCM ClearCase", you can use an existing dynamic view, even if it is non-UCM.
You need to click on "Advanced Options" to access to that part.
That being said, make sure the user associated with the Hudson session is registered in the right groups (primary or secondary groups of the Vobs that account needs to access) in order to be able to read (even checkout) files in said Vobs.
Turns out the OP did have the right Hudson ClearCase plugin, did access the "Advanced Options" part, but:
"Use dynamic view" option
and the "Let Hudson manage the view lifecycle".
That second option isn't needed when you have a dynamic view already created (outside of Hudson), and if you want that view to be reused as is.
Our build has a variety of generated HTML reports. I would like to have those reported and accessible on the build page, like JavaDoc entries. Is there a generic way to expose these reports without writing a custom plug ins ?
If that isn't available, is there a way to post an HTTP link on the page ?
You can choose "archive the artifacts" and archive for example "reports/*.html"
These will appear under the project page under the heading "Last successful artifacts".
Even if you clear your workspace before each build, these artifacts are moved to a separate directory.
You could also add a build script which will modify or update a file in your userContent directory (since Hudson 1.299), and link to these build artifacts in yet another location.
