Exceptions using CruiseControl.NET

Question

I recently updated to CC.NET 1.5 and I'm now getting some strange exceptions.

On one project I get: - ThoughtWorks.CruiseControl.Core.CruiseControlException: Source control operation failed: svn: Can't create a character converter from native encoding to 'UTF-8'

This happens when CC is checking a subversion repository for any mods. If I run the actual command line CC says is failing it works and returns an empty XML (there are no mods).

Some other projects also fail to check mods with another "Source control operation failed" exception but no further info. Again the command is an "svn log" which when run from command line works ok.

I'm using subversion 1.4.5 client side and my source repository exists on a separate box than my build server.

Anyone got any ideas?

Answer 1

1/ Have u try to update Svn client ? I doubt it is so simple, but let's check !

2/ Try a svn cleanup

3/ What is your svn config in ccnet ?

4/ What is the build revision of ccnet you are using ? You should try the latest 1.5.x nigthly build, which is very stable for me. http://ccnetlive.thoughtworks.com/CCNet-builds/1.5.0/
