I am trying to create an IPA file from Bamboo by doing this: Firstly I will checkout the default repository, then clone a devops repository, then have a nuget restore task. All of these tasks work perfectly fine but it is the Build for iOS task which is where I create my .IPA file is were I am having the problems. Firstly I am using a command task and the files are being build on a mac-agent(needed to create the .IPA file).
I have tried this two different ways, both ways have different outcomes but basically it is not what I expect to happen. The first way I tried was to use mdtool as the executable which worked like this:
-v build -t:build -p:CustomerApp.iOS *-c:Release|iPhone* CustomerApp.sln
This task will build but the .IPA file will not be created and the log file just says Build for iOS succeeded so I do not know what the problem is for that. The second way that I tried was to use xbuild as the executable which I did it like this:
xbuild /p:Configuration=AppStore /p:Platform=iPhone /p:BuildIpa=true /target:Build CustomerApp.sln
And also tried changing the /p:Configuration=AppStore to /p:Configuration=Release
But both of these responses will return the error
MSBUILD: error MSBUILD0004: Too many project files specified
Note that I know it says error MSBUILD0004 but I am not calling the error the xbuild executable is called with the path: /usr/local/bin/xbuild likewise the mdtool is being called successfully through the path: /Applications/Xamarin Studio.app/Conents/MacOS/mdtool and I have checked that the files exist through the terminal.
What is the reason that the mdtool and xbuild will not create the .IPA file? From what I have seen online it was mainly to do with applications that were not up to date but mine are as shown by the log here:
Already up-to-date.
MSBuild auto-detection: using msbuild version '4.0' from '/usr/local/Cellar/mono/4.6.2.7/lib/mono/4.5'.
All packages listed in packages.config are already installed.
Bamboo is creating a folder which is called MOB-CUSAPP9-JOB1. This is where I want to generate the IPA file from but using that still gives me the error above when using the xbuild way, inside the folder when it is generated it has a file called the CustomerApp.sln which I also tried but got the error as well. Inside the MOB-CUSAPP9-JOB1 files that get created are Mobile.Core.iOS and CustomerApp.iOS I have tried to use all of these and get the same error, I have even tried the whole directory to this but /users/dev/bamboo/etc/MOB-CUSAPP9-JOB1 but got the same result.
Here is an image of the folder that bamboo builds:

I am getting the following error when I am queuing a build in TFS 2017.
"Microsoft.Web.Publishing.targets 3009,5): Error : Web deployment task failed. (Package file 'C:\agent_work\3\s\TestApp\TestApp\release' does not have a .zip file name extension.)"
I am not sure why I am getting this error. I have hosted agent on the TFS server. I created the build definition according to this video:
www.youtube.com/watch?v=HjD4A-yeFTE
Does somebody have any idea? Appreciate your help!
Test at my side and everything works correctly.
Please try below items to narrow down the issue:
Please check the drop folder, if the .zip file actually being in the
place that you expected.
Try to specify the output path, eg:
/p:PackageLocation="$(build.artifactstagingdirectory)\\" , then
specify the Copy Root path as $(build.artifactstagingdirectory)
in Copy and Publish Build Artifacts task.
Explicitly specifying .zip extension in MSBuild Argument in the
Build Definition.
p:PackageLocation="$(BuildConfiguration)\package.zip
Check the build log, check if MSbuild works correctly. Also you can try the Msbuild command line locally to check if the .zip package can be generated.
Deploy a new agent on your Develop machine, create a new build
definition, then build with the new agent.
If still can not resolve the issue, just share the build logs here for further troubleshoot.
Im trying to setup jenkins in my company and Ive got some problems.
Im using this commands to build the project:
SET MSBuild="C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v3.5\MSBuild.exe"
SET BUILDS=C:\Program Files (x86)\Jenkins\jobs\xxx\builds\
SET OUTPUT_PATH="%BUILDS%%BUILD_NUMBER%"
SET RSVARS="C:\Program Files (x86)\Embarcadero\RAD Studio\10.0\bin\rsvars.bat"
CALL %RSVARS%
SET PATH=%PATH%;D:\komponenty\DXE3\ADSI
%MSBuild% xxx.dproj /t:Build /p:Config=Debug;Platform=Win32;DCC_ExeOutput=%OUTPUT_PATH% /maxcpucount:4
It works fine when i type this in cmd but. I gave administrive privileges to jenkins service. When I try to build project with jenkins i receive error like this:
F1026: File not found: 'ADSI.dcu
this is a component for Delphi and i have this component on second partition. Jenkins has access for many components on this partition but not for this one.
The difference between the two will be your current directory.
Jenkins will start you off in a specific working folder for the job (possibly C:\Users\<User-ID>\.jenkins\jobs\<Job-Name>\workspace).
Add the following to your Jenkins commands to see where you're doing the build from:
echo Current Folder: %cd%
A simple "solution" would be to just add a command in Jenkins to change directory to the same folder you're in when you test from the command-line.
However, I suggest you rather do the following:
Ensure Jenkins gets the latest source from your source repository into its working folder. (There are various plugins depending on what particular tool you use.)
Ensure you cd (change directory) to the correct folder within the workspace folder.
I have a TFS build in a Git team project that uses the default template. It builds a .proj file containing a single target that executes a .PS1 file in Powershell.exe.
The .PS1 generates its own log file. I have been trying to figure out how to get this file to copy to the drop directory \logs folder. From what I can tell, TFS only copies specific files to this output directory:
ActivityLog.AgentScope.[id].xml
ActivityLog.xml
build.log
Anyone tried getting custom logging info to this directory? I tried writing to build.log but that failed with errors.
I like #MrHinsh's answer better than mine, but I found that you can write to a file at this location: $(TF_BUILD_DROPLOCATION)\logs during build.
I assumed that since the path doesn't exist until the log files are copied it would not work. But it does... the TFS/MSBuild log files are simply merged in. And it even seemed to work with a name conflict. For example, if your file is named build.log, MSBuild's will be renamed to build.01.log.
In your PowerShell you can easily execute Host-Write to write to the Build log. All of the standers output methods are captured, although you need to use the "-verbose" tag to get the text to always write.
I have a Visual Studio 2013 solution with the full Orchard source code. When I use "Publish..." on the "Orchard.Web" project in Visual Studio, it correctly publishes the site to the File System destination I've configured into the .PubXml file that I used.
However, if I build this site using Jenkins, the files do not get copied to the destination. I've created a separate PubXml file that is used by Jenkins.
In my Jenkins job, I have two Build steps of interest. The first uses the src\Orchard.sln file with a command line argument of /p:Configuration=Release. This runs correctly, and builds the entire solution.
The second Build step, immediately after, uses the Build File of src\Orchard.Web\Orchard.Web.csproj and these command line arguments:
/p:DeployOnBuild=true
/p:PublishProfile="D:\workspace\Site\trunk\src\Orchard.Web\Properties\PublishProfiles\Jenkins.pubxml"
/p:VisualStudioVersion=12.0
/p:Configuration=Release
/p:Platform=AnyCPU
/v:minimal
/nologo
/p:WarningLevel=1
With this, the build and deploy seems to work - but doesn't. Here are some lines from the build output:
Copying all files to temporary location below for package/publish:
obj\Release\Package\PackageTmp.
Auto ConnectionString Transformed obj\Release\Package\PackageTmp\Shapes\Scripts\Web.config into obj\Release\CSAutoParameterize\transformed\Shapes\Scripts\Web.config.
(... about 200 more "Auto ConnectionString..." lines...)
Finished: SUCCESS
No where does it actually copy the files to the destination defined in the PUBXML file.
In contrast, in Visual Studio, the output looks similar, but transforms only 4 config files and includes lots of "Publishing folder x" lines:
(...)
Transformed Modules\SH.GoogleAnalytics\web.config using ....
Copying all files to temporary location below for package/publish:
obj\Release\Package\PackageTmp.
Publishing folder /...
Publishing folder bin...
(etc.)
(I have installed the latest Windows Azure SDK for .NET on the Jenkins server.)
I have the same trouble,that work for me:
/t:Rebuild
/p:DeployOnBuild=true
/p:PublishProfile=Jenkins_Publish
/p:Configuration=Release
do not use /p:VisualStudioVersion=xxx
This is kind of old, but I actually just set up Orchard to be able to get built via command line and MSBuild. Here is what I did:
/p:VisualStudioVersion=12.0;PublishProfile="example-profile";DeployProjA=true;FrameworkPathOverride="C:\Program Files (x86)\Reference Assemblies\Microsoft\Framework\v4.5";Configuration=Release;PublishProfileRootFolder=c:\Workspace\src\Orchard.Web\Properties\PublishProfiles;Password=ExamplePass
Since you are using Orchard you want to make sure that only the Orchard.Web project gets published so do not use DeployOnBuild=true. This will attempt to deploy every web project in the solution, which is a lot for Orchard. Instead follow the guidelines here to see how to deploy only the web project: http://sedodream.com/2013/03/06/HowToPublishOneWebProjectFromASolution.aspx
It seems to me that what I'm trying to achieve is incredibly simple, yet is becoming incredibly painful.
I have ProjectA which is a BlackBerry Application project. I have ProjectB which is a Java library project. I want to refer to ProjectB from ProjectA. I can add a reference but when I run ProjectA, it doesn't work. I have source code for both the projects and both are compiled using Java compiler 1.4
I have tried multiple things but everything fails for some reason:
1. pre-verify.exe on ProjectB
It fails with an error "JAR file creation failed with error -1" I can see that the cod and jar files have been created but when add the jar file to ProjectA and run it, it doesn't work. Not sure if I need to add the .cod file.
2. Create new BlackBerry Library Project and reference it in ProjectA
I create a new project ProjectC and then add the jar of ProjectB to it. Then I add a reference to ProjectC in ProjectA. But I cant import classes from ProjectB
Pls suggest a way out.
I'm using Eclipse Plug-in and relying on Eclipse's build capabilities
Figured out answer myself. Publishing here in case someone stumbles upon this. Here are the steps:
Create your library and export as JAR (or download the 3rd party JAR)
Run preverify.exe on the JAR
preverify.exe -verbose -classpath "C:/Program Files/Research In Motion/BlackBerry JDE 5.0.0/lib/net_rim_api.jar" jarname.jar
If you are lucky, you won't run into any issues and you will be done. But I wasn't lucky enough. I got the below error
Error: No such file or directory. JAR file creation failed with error -1
There are two possible causes of this:
jar.exe is not added to your PATH. If so, add it (found in your JAVA
installation directory) to PATH
cvfm or -cfm option on jar.exe fails to execute. I'm not aware of the reason but the way to fix this is to use -cf option, point to the .class files but don't use the manifest file. here is an
example:
"C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_26\bin\jar.exe" -cf "output\json-1.0.jar" tmp12996/
tmp12996 contains the preverified .class files.
You may run into different issues other than the one I've listed above.
Once jar is created from above step, make sure that it's structure is as you anticipate. One way to check is to rename the .jar to .zip, unzip it and then check it. If it is not as you need, you can change the structure and then repack it (I wouldn't do any major changes though)
Then add this newly built jar to your BlackBerry application as a reference i.e. add to Java Build Path in your eclipse and Check it in Order and Export window.
That's it! You are good to go! Run you app!
You may face error indicating that the module contains verification errors when you try to run in the simulator. One possible cause of this issue is that your library (the original JAR) contains APIs that are not compatible with J2ME or BB JRE. You may not get a compiler error when you build your library independently as it is compiled against Java 1.4 (or whatever your version is). Best to figure the issue out is to move all your code into your BB App project and then build it. That will tell you all the issues upfront. You make the changes as required and then move the code back to the library. If you don't have source code for the library you are using (like a 3rd party library), you may be out of luck! Also remember that there could be other issues than what I've hit upon and solved.
I'm documenting this at length as it has taken an awful amount of time for me to figure all this out; and to say the least, was most frustrating!
I found another solution. If you get error -1 while preverifying your JAR file, just run your library application once. Because if you don't run the application, the deliverables folder will be empty. Make sure this folder is not empty.
