I am trying to install a build agent on linux for teamcity. I downloaded the buildAgent.zip file and extracted it. I renamed the buildAgent.dist.properties file to buildAgent.properties as instructed by the teamcity documentation. I edited the file with the server url and the port number i will be using(ex: 150). On the teamcity server machine i opened port 150. I opened a command shell and executed the ./agent.sh start command and it says it started but it is not showing up in the list on the teamcity server. Does anyone know why this is?

A: 

Port numbers below 1024 can be accessed only by the root user on Linux. Just use the default ports and everything should work fine.

Agent and Server logs should help you to identify the problem.

I tired using the default but it still doesn't show up. The logs say it connected to the server. Still doesn't show up in the list though.

Did you authorize the agent? See http://confluence.jetbrains.net/display/TCD5/Agents#Agents-Unauthorizedagents

Please send the most recent logs from both server and the agent to [email protected]
