CruiseControlException "log.xml does not exist" help

Question

Hi all....

I have a project that have cruiseControl running to build our things.

In my config.main I have a <onsuccess> with a <antpublisher>

But when some error occur in the ANT I'm receiving a exception:

exception publishing results with net.sourceforge.cruisecontrol.publishers.OnSuccessPublisher for project usforce net.sourceforge.cruisecontrol.CruiseControlException: ant logfile /home/usforce/cruisecontrol-bin-2.7.3/log.xml does not exist.

I google it and could not found what this file for..

Answer 1

I guess the log CruiseControl is complaining about is the build log file. Typically the name of the file is something like log20100213101358Lbuild.1.xml and the file is not placed in the CCDIR, but within logs dir, e.g. ${CCDIR}/logs/${project.name}.

It sounds like a bug in CruiseControl. Maybe you could try to reproduce the problem and file an issue in their issue tracker?
