Re: Build restarts itself, killing the log?

Hi,

I am quite sure, that there is no second process running and we are using only one worker.

Furthermore I see the log is written in case of a build failed, so I guess it has to be 2): it was deleted.

I guess I will have to take a look into what is happening in the cleanup target. Perhaps there is a wrong path variable or something like that…

Thanks for the help, I’ll keep you posted if it turns out to be a real CruiseControl issue.

Regards
Paul

Hi Paul,

A good guess, but that's not quite what's happening.  The build attempt takes place in a try {} block with a finally{} that sets the status to IDLE, and then the catch is outside of that.

So what is happening is the builder finishes the build but then throws an exception because the Ant log file it is looking or isn't there.  Two possible reasons for that:

  1) it was never written
  2) it was deleted

Is it possible you have other builds running at the same time?  Or do you have only one worker thread?

Hi all,

I have a strange CruiseControl issue:

Every night we run a special build target, that builds a tag that was done automatically.

This target needs ~90 minutes to complete.

Since some days, I only get logs if the build fails, but not if it succeeded.

The Wrapper log shows the following:

I read this like:
At 23:57:12 the build was almost done and doing the cleanup (never mind the error message there, it can be ignored).
Than at 23:59:44 the build went idle and was restarted, effectively killing the still running build and its logfile?

Anyone ever experienced something like this?
