Builds failing with imported deployable



  • The following error message occurs in any application we build that uses the imported deployable:

    Unable to cast object of type 'System.DBNull' to type 'System.String'.

    Ideas?



  • Which version of BuildMaster are you running? Did this start happening just after an upgrade? Does this happen on all builds in a particular release/application, or all builds system-wide? Do you know what (if anything) changed just before the failures starting occurring?



  • It was not after upgrade...but I did just run the upgrade to 3.2.1 to see if resolved and its not.

    It is the same workflow for all appplications, and they all fail at this step of talking to Surround SCM.



  • Have you recently deleted a server by chance?

    Also, can you email a copy of a failed build execution log to support@inedo.com so we can take a look at it?



  • We did delete a server about two weeks back. An entire environment went away in fact as we no longer build to it.



  • For future reference, this was happening because the application attempting to be built was including an imported deployable, and there was no active build in the referenced application.

    The error message will be clarified in the next version of BuildMaster (v3.2.2).
