  At the moment, there is no way to accomplish the pull method. Our agents are extensible, but the BuildMaster service itself is not equipped to handle the incoming connections since it works backwards to the original design. We have however thought about implementing this type of agent specifically to allow for hosted instances of BuildMaster. If you are a looking to purchase the enterprise edition, there are additional support plans that we have done in the past that would expedite the delivery of features like this. If this interests you, please contact support@inedo.com.

  Yes, deleting and readding the action step fixed this bug. I should have tried that, I suppose. Thanks! Matthew

  We currently have no first-class integration with HPQC but we're always looking for ways to integrate with third-party tools. We even offer extended support plans that can move the integration to the top of the list so to speak. If you'd be willing to email us at support@inedo.com with ideas on the sort of integration you're looking for, we'd be glad to take a look at that.

  Okay, thanks for letting me know. I did change the name through the database, and that worked just fine. The history of the rename is not as critical to me as the deployment history, so I think we're good for now. Thanks for the reply, Matthew

  The 1000 is a limit imposed by Active Directory presumably for performance reasons. Typically, you shouldn't ever need to be on the users page when using Integrated Security because once a user is assigned privileges via the "Assign Security Privileges" page, they automatically become a named user if there are licenses available when they visit the BuildMaster URL. We are planning an enhancement that will determine based on the assigned privileges whether the user should be approval-only or full, but for now it will default to full (if available) and downgrade to approval-only if no full user licenses are available. Once the user has become a named user, you can manually edit the type of user on the "License Key and Activation" page which allows you to select "[change]" to toggle the user between full or approval-only as needed.

  Are you using the integrated web server? If so, you'll need to add the host name: http://inedo.com/support/kb/1014/changing-buildmasters-url-with-the-integrated-web-server It's also pretty easy to upgrade to IIS, if it's already installed on the box: http://inedo.com/support/kb/1013/hosting-buildmaster-through-iis-instead-of-the-integrated-web-server

  Thanks for the update; we do plan on supporting this soon once a particular feature ("Release Archiving") is introduced. In the mean time, we can at least change some of the procs/funcs/etc that are crashing. If you can send us a backup of your database (support at inedo dot com), we could use that as a starting point and get a patch to you very soon. If you need to scrub sensitive data, this will do it: DELETE BuildExecution_PlanActionLogEntries UPDATE Providers SET Provider_Configuration = NULL UPDATE PlanActions SET Action_Configuration = NULL But it will also ruin your database, so obviously only do that on the database you'd send us :-)

  I think the problem may have to do with your project/solution configuration (i.e. .sln and .vbproj/.csproj files). In the action's execution log, you can see the exact command run by the Action. I would suggest to run that command at your desktop, and then try to see what specific project is missing the output path... and then tweak the project files.

  Yes,I would think the same. Thanks for clarifying. Please plan to release this fix at the earliest possible and would be glad if you can keep us informed on the same. For now, building .NET projects is really turning out to be a painful task just because of this one issue. Fortunately, there are some tedious workarounds.

  The second issues I posted, has got fixed when I changed the regional settings to UK and now I am able to set a date in the datepicker control! Please fix this issue in next release guys. The first issue might well be because of the web site settings. Weird thing is the BuildMaster website was in 2.0 but the root websites setting was in 4.0. I ran aspnet_regiis -sn WSVC/ on all the paths and changed everything to 2.0. Did a IISreset but still didnt work ! But after doing that,I uninstalled and reinstalled the BM and it is working now ! Thanks for the help but please investigate the issue and would help if you can publish the corrrect IIS settings in deployment guide.

  Configuration files must be associated with a deployable, which means you need at least 1 deployable in your application. Some of the differences between a deployable and an application are highlighted in this article: http://inedo.com/support/kb/1032/the-difference-between-deployables-and-applications For now, just create a deployable with the same name as your application and then you'll be able to create a config file.

  When you share/link action groups, you may select a "Default Server" for the actions, which means you can link them across environments and still have the actions run on different servers (just select the local BuildMaster server for the actions, that will be overridden by the selected default server of the group). If you choose a separate build server for your actions instead, that will take precendence over the default server unless the build server is the same as the BuildMaster server; if that's the case you can just put those actions in a separate group. As for the database selection, we could update that action to allow selection via a variable or have a default option that chooses the DB based on the environment it's in.

  Thanks for the confirmation. I just tested this technique, and it worked really well, actually. I'm going to use the following naming convention: DEV SQL Server (the actual DEV database) TEST to DEV SQL Server (the TEST database available to the DEV BuildMaster environment) PROD to DEV SQL Server (the PROD database available to the DEV BuildMaster environment) I was concerned that BuildMaster would want to re-initialize the database, but it didn't. In fact, during the next build in DEV, BuildMaster correctly backed up my PROD db and restored to DEV and then determined that my SQL Change Script had never been run (since the BuildMaster execution table is also restored). This is how I expect and want it to behave. Thanks again for the VERY FAST response! Matthew

  FYI we have released a new version of the DotNetRecipes extension, if you update that extension within BuildMaster then re-create the example app, the signing should work correctly. As for the certificate hash problem, that has been resolved in the .NET extension which is scheduled for a release later today or early tomorrow.
