Hi,

Can someone tell me what's the difference between Buildmaster 2024.8 and 2024.8-r1 container version

I can't see it based on changelogs...

Thant in advance,
Marc

Hi all,

Just to inform that I discovered a "bug" in :

/usr/local/buildmaster/service/agents/linux-x64/links.json

This file contains lines like:

"fr\\Microsoft.Data.SqlClient.resources.dll":  "fr\\Microsoft.Data.SqlClient.resources.dll",

From what I can understand, this file makes a mapping (link) between windows named path to Linux named path but in this case the value part should contain "/" instead of "\\"

Because of that, there is an error in server ssh connection as the file name is incorrect.

I changed the file with the help of a configMap replacing the faulty json with a correct one.

This file now contains line like:

"fr\\Microsoft.Data.SqlClient.resources.dll":  "fr/Microsoft.Data.SqlClient.resources.dll",

This should be patched in a future release...

Hope this helps,
Marc

Hi Alana,

THanks for your answer. However, in the GUI, I don't have the openLDAP choice:

V1: LDAP or Single Domain Active Directory (Legacy)
BuildMaster will use the user and group information of a single domain or a generic LDAP directory.

V2: Active Directory Domain Forest (Legacy)
BuildMaster will use the global catalog for the current forest, and also all domains which have an inbound trust. If you only have one domain, the LDAP directory should be used instead.

V3: Active Directory (Deprecated)
Queries the current domain, global catalog for trusted domains, or a specific list of domains for users and group membership.

V4: Active Directory/LDAP
Queries the current domain, global catalog for trusted domains, or a specific list of domains for users and group membership.

How can I have access to the openLDAP option?

Kind regards,
Marc

Is there a way to use LDAP authentication in Buildmaster when used in a Docker container (OpenShift)?

Hi @atripp ,

Thanks for the suggestions. Concerning the LogMessages table, we already have those messages displayed on the OpenShift console, but nothing suspect can be seen.

What I'll try is to test a fresh install of the last BuildMaster version and see what difference we have with our "updated" version.

I'll keep you in touch.
Marc

I already checked the console an didn't see anything bad, except those lines:

Unable to auto-activate license. Error was: The request was canceled due to the configured HttpClient.Timeout of 100 seconds elapsing.
Unable to auto-activate license. Error was: The request was canceled due to the configured HttpClient.Timeout of 100 seconds elapsing.

Request finished HTTP/1.1 GET http://mdw-deploy-bima-alpha.apps.gcloud-04.paas.services.gcloud.belgium.be/ - 302 0 - 100320.3875ms

As we do not have connection to the internet, even by proxy, those messages should be considered as "normal"

What is strange, is that we have listeners on ports, but a curl on those ports are failing in timeout...

Hi all,

We have a running Buildmaster v 7.0.23 on OpenShift that we want to upgrade to the last version (24.0.x)

Upgrading to 7.0.25 is working. But when I want to upgrade to 22.x or higher, I cannot access to the app: err 504: gateway timeout. A curl inside the container gives the same result.

I already had a look at the thread "[ProGet] Manual database upgrade (docker, kubernetes)", but the solution is using the arg "upgrade" of ProGet that is not existing for BuildMaster.

What hint do you suggest me to solve this problem?

Thanks in advance,
Marc

@atripp Thanks for your reply... This is a good reason to planify an upgrade!

Marc

I forgot to mention: this is an old version: 7.0.23

Hi all,

In BuildMaster, when I want to access an event in the Buildmaster event page, I get a window with :

Unexpected Error
(500) Server Error
Collection is not a wrapped Inedo.Web.Controls.SimpleHtml.Td collection. (Parameter 'collection')
For more information, visit the Error Log Page.

What can be the meaning of this message?

Kind regards,
Marc

Hello people!

We are currently using aan old version of BM (7.0.23) on OpenShift. Therefore the license is validated against a rather dumb host string.

But while I attempted to upgrade to a more recent version (22.0.15), I noticed that this string has changed to a more consistent value.

My question is: on which criteria this string is based on? In other words, what if we decide to move the pod to an other node, or rename the container/pod/project name?

Have a sunny day (just like here in Belgium)
Marc

I've seen your message yesterday. I will investigate as soon I have the correct environment. Thanks for the help!

Hi Alana,

Here is the content of the element:

<a href="https://xx.yyyy.zz//administration/security/built-in/change-password" onclick="$.inedojq_frameddialog(this.href,{resizable: true,refreshOnClose: false,width:640,height:480});return false;">Change Password</a>

As you can see, there is a double / instead of one. I tried to mofify the baseUrl parameter to remove the / at the end but then the server becomes inaccessible. Maybe I have to restart it...

Hi all,

While running deployments on our migrated Buildmaster instance, we notice strange log messages like:

...
at Inedo.BuildMaster.Extensibility.Agents.ConnectingAgent.GetAgentServiceInternal(Type service) in C:\Users\builds\AppData\Local\Temp\InedoAgent\BuildMaster\192.168.44.60\Temp\_E236482\Src\BuildMasterSolution\CoreEx\BuildMasterExtensions\Agents\ConnectingAgent.cs:line 36
   at Inedo.Extensibility.Agents.Agent.GetService[TService]()
   at Inedo.BuildMaster.Windows.ServiceApplication.Executions.PlanExecuter.OtterScriptExecuter.<>c__DisplayClass48_0.

The windows like path is strange by itself, but the IP is even more strange. We do not have such IP rages in our company...

How it comes?

Kind regards,
Marc

Hi all,

We just have migrate our BuildMaster server from Windows to OpenShift.

We are still using version 7.0.23.1

All is working fine up to now, except that since OpenShift cannot access AD, and v 7.0.23.1 does not support LDAP auth, we are using integraded auth, which is not yet a problem as we do no have a lot of users.

However, when we ask a use to change his default password, we have the following message in the popup window:

"There is no page or resource at the URL you requested: //administration/security/built-in/change-password "

I suspect that this should be a complete URL but the heading "https..." is missing.

How can we correct that?

Kind regards,
Marc

Thanks Alana!

Hi all,

I inadvertently created a pipeline. How can I delete it?

Thanks in advance,
Marc

Replying to myself: This is due to chromium protection feature. I successfully downloaded it via Firefox.

Solved then

Hi all,

I currently have a problem downloading he offline installer for BuildMaster 7.0.23: in fact nothing seems to happen. No download is initiating. However, when I try to download the "manual installation files", it works perfectly.

What can I do?

Thanks in advance,
Marc

OK, by selecting the correct version, I managed to upgrade manually the extensions.

Many thanks for your time,
Marc
