I am in the process of setting up teamcity and msbuild to automate our build process a good deal more than we do now. Each project that we work on is being set up as a seperate project in teamcity, and each of those projects is being set up with 3 build configurations: Development, staging, and live. Development is our standard CI build ...
I'm fairly new to Subversion. Most of my work so far has been with Visual Source Safe. I'm looking to improve my deployment process with SVN and TeamCity. This is my plan: There would be three branches: Development (/trunk) - Entire ASP.NET solution, including a Web Deployment Project. Staging (/branches/staging) - Web Deployment Proj...
We got a TeamCity server which produces nightly deployable builds. We want our beta tester to have access these nightly builds. What are the best practices to do this? TeamCity Server is not public, it is in our office, so I assume best approach would be pushing artifacts via FTP or something like that. Also I have no clue how to trigg...
Hope someone can assist me with this. Have TeamCity up and running and doing builds on various projects. I'd like to be able to copy/deploy a successful TeamCity ran build to a test server automatically. I was thinking of using PowerShell to do this but, am open to other ideas. Can some provide me with info on how I can accomplish this....
Does anyone else have a problem where everytime you need to commit using the TeamCity VS plugin, you have to re-enter the TeamCity server address and credentials? ...
I'm trying to find my hands and legs around CI. I've played a little with CC.Net and nAnt. Now, before trying Team City which everyone seems to recommend (and which, as far as I understand, competes with and is better than CC.Net), I want to understand that Tree Surgeon and ci-factory do, and how they fit into the big picture. I thin...

Here is a simplified version of what iam trying to do: <Project xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/developer/msbuild/2003"> <Target Name="T1"> <Copy SourceFiles="c:\temp\a.txt" DestinationFolder="C:\temp2...

What it does is: Clean any existing files Compile each project Create the installer Once that is done the unit tests are kicked off and it takes about 2 minutes to run. What...
I'm building an ASP.Net MVC project in TeamCity. Can I somehow call the Publish target and get the output copied to a folder under IIS? or do I need to write an msbuild script for this? ...
I am trying to setup a .net build using Teamcity. We got it to compile and now the problem is once started it keeps building in a loop. Is there a setting I can do to get rid of the multiple runs in Teamcity. I ran the MSbuild from command line using the same solution (.sln) file it works ok and runs only once. Thanks In advance Rega...

Microsoft Team System appears to be a great platform for process-oriented systems implementation, however if you strip out access for the BAs, PM and Business Users and just purely use it within a Dev team does it have any more value than just using Visual Studio Professional, SourceSafe, a Defect Tracking Tool and a continuous integrati...
Hi, I want got CuriseControl .NET based CI process installed for my development - a small team of 15 developers, concurrently working on several projects in one solution. Now my question is what do i need to configure so as to avoid any potential multiple concurrent CI builds getting triggered. I amy be asking a stupid question here, b...
In my VB.NET project I have three configurations DEBUG|TEST|RELEASE. Currently when I am building using MSbuild and TeamCity I hard code the configuration, which smells badly!, to TEST <Configuration Condition=" '$(Configuration)' == '' ">Test</Configuration> Now before everyone screams at me not to hardcode this, the reason this wa...
I have 3 MSBUild scripts for deployment, 1 for deploying UI 1 for deploying a couple of web services. 1 for deploying backend services. Now I would like to create a one click deployment MSBuild script, which would call all the above 3 scripts, which can be executed from a TeamCity server. So how can I call these three MSBuild scripts f...
I'm working on a C#/VB.Net project that uses SVN and TeamCity build server. A dozen or so assemblies are produced by the build. I want to control the assembly versions so that they all match up and also match the TeamCity build label. I've configured TeamCity to use a build label of Major.Minor.{Revision}.{Build} Where Major and M...

I have a project that uses SVN externals to include some stuff (actually it's the MSBuild Community Tasks, but that's tangential). The external repository requires a username 'guest' but no password. I've set an externals property and this works perfectly when doing an SVN Update locally. The problem comes when my TeamCity continuous in...

Hi all, I have TeamCity 4.5.4 set up and working perfectly for some of our projects, using SVN. Now I need to check out some older projects that are archived into an NG3 Source server, and I can't find a solution. I can't simply migrate the old projects to SVN because the team who is working on them is opposing to that idea, so I should ...
