CruiseControlException when connecting to source control

Question

I'm getting an exception from Cruise Control about not being able to connect to the server. However, if I force a build it works just fine. I've also tried using the repo-browser to connect to the server without any problems so I know that the server is up and running. I'm running CCNET 1.4.4 and SlikSVN 1.5.3. Below is the exception from the CCNET log:

ThoughtWorks.CruiseControl.Core.CruiseControlException:
Source control operation failed: svn: OPTIONS of 'https://some-server.com/trunk': could not connect to server (https://some-server.com) .
Process command: C:\Program\SlikSvn\bin\svn.exe log https://some-server.com/trunk -r "{2009-06-23T01:36:19Z}:{2009-06-23T07:20:25Z}" --verbose --xml --username ccnet --password auto --non-interactive --no-auth-cache

at ThoughtWorks.CruiseControl.Core.IntegrationRunner.GetModifications(IIntegrationResult from, IIntegrationResult to) vid ThoughtWorks.CruiseControl.Core.IntegrationRunner.Integrate(IntegrationRequest request)

Any ideas would be much appreciated!

Answer 1

I finally got it working again and this is what I've done.

• Set maxSourceControlRetries to 10 in my CCNET-config
• Set sourceControlErrorHandling to ReportOnEveryRetryAmount in my CCNET-config
• Switched to the latest version of CollabNet client

As it turns out, CCNET swallowed sourcecontrol-errors like this in previous versions so I might have had troubles even before I updated to CCNET 1.4.4 but was unaware of it.

Thanks for your comments!
