Error when building after adding spritefont to monogame - monogame

When I through the monogame pipeline tool add either an existing or a new spritefont, I get two errors when I try to build the solution.
The command 'input dir' 'output dir' exited with code -532462766.
And
Processor 'FontDescriptionProcessor' had unexpected failure! 'path to
spritefont'
Any idea why this can be?

Unknown command error in Jenkins when running Cake script using Powershell

Our Jenkins server has been successfully building projects for years using Powershell to run a cake script. Out of the blue today, we started getting the following error on multiple projects:
12:10:46 Running build script...
12:10:46
12:10:46 Error: Unknown command 'Default'.
12:10:46
12:10:46 .\scripts\build.cake -target=Default -configuration=Release
12:10:46 -verbosity=Verbose -environment=dev -certificatePath=C:/Program Files
12:10:46 (x86)/xxxxx/Verisign Certificate -certificateName=xxxxxxxx_cert.pfx
12:10:46 -certificatePassword=xxxxxxxxxxx
12:10:46 ^^^^^^^ No such command
12:10:46
12:10:47 Build step 'Windows PowerShell' marked build as failure
The build.ps1 script has not changed. The build.cake script has not changed. Jenkins was not updated since the last successful builds nor any of the add-ins.
If I remove "-target=Default" from the argument list, I just get the same error on "-configuration=Release" indicating unknown command: "Release".
Has anyone else experienced this?
The possible root cause of this failure is the cake version update (0.38.x --> 1.0)
You have two ways to fix this issue
Change the Argument Syntex - arguments should always be called with multi-dash syntax (e.g. --target=Foo) instead of (e.g. -target=Foo)
Refer: https://cakebuild.net/docs/getting-started/upgrade
Pinning the cake version
Specified the version of Cake in the tools/packages.config file
Refer: https://cakebuild.net/docs/writing-builds/reproducible-builds/pinning-cake-version

How to solve Taskhash mismatch and metadata is not deterministic in Yocto project build?

I am facing "Taskhash mismatch" & "The metadata is not deterministic and this needs to be fixed" error in Yocto project build. This issue arises without any obvious reasons. With a perfectly good source code repo, the build is success sometime, while it fails some time. There is no change in source code/recipe or any other build parameters.
Error log:

I resolved this issue by doing two of the following action.
Clean the recipe which throws error during build using following command
bitbake -c cleansstate sub_project-rootfs-base
Update the bb file timestamp by doing empty write or by touching file.
Open the bb file using your editor - vim /home/user/my_project/yocto/sub_project-yocto/meta-subproject/meta-base/recipes-core/sub_project-rootfs-base/sub_project-rootfs-base.bb
Write the file by clicking save button or in vim writing ":w" command
Close the file using "x" button or ":q" command.
Rebuild the project as usual.
Edit : In case there are multiple bitbake recipes showing this error, you can touch all bb files and build again. Go into your yocto folder and run following command. This will take some to touch all file and significantly higher time to rebuild the project.
find . -type f -name "*.bb" -exec touch {} +

Continue after a failing command in appveyor

In appveyor I use the statement:
- initexmf --admin --force --mklinks
but due to a problem it gives the message:
initexmf --admin --force --mklinks
Sorry, but "MiKTeX Configuration Utility" did not succeed for the following reason:
Script configuration file not found.
The log file hopefully contains the information to get MiKTeX going again:
C:\ProgramData\MiKTeX\2.9\miktex\log\initexmf_admin.log
The system cannot find the path specified.
Command exited with code 1
due to the error code the process terminates and I cannot type the C:\ProgramData\MiKTeX\2.9\miktex\log\initexmf_admin.log anymore, so a bit hard to debug ...
questions:
How to continue after an error
How to stop after the outputting the file (exit 1 ?)
To run a script on failure use on_failure section, for example to push initexmf_admin.log to artifacts:
on_failure:
- appveyor PushArtifact C:\ProgramData\MiKTeX\2.9\miktex\log\initexmf_admin.log

SYSTEMD_SERVICE_swupdate value swupdate.service does not exist

I am trying to build swupdate image by running bitbake swupdate-image but getting following errors,
ERROR: swupdate-2019.04-r0 do_package: SYSTEMD_SERVICE_swupdate value swupdate.service does not exist
ERROR: swupdate-2019.04-r0 do_package:

ERROR: Task (/home/panther2/warrior/sources/meta-swupdate/recipes-support/swupdate/swupdate_2019.04.bb:do_package) failed with exit code '1'
I am building for warrior yocto branch. Error indicates that swupdate.service does not exist but swupdate.service does exist under meta-swupdate/recipes-support/swupdate/swupdate. Any help is really appreciated. Thanks for your time.
swupdate-image is a rescue system - it generates a Ramdisk. Care was taken about footprint - it runs then with SystemV and not with systemd. If you want to buid swupdate-image with systemd as init, add your own swupdate-image.bbappend and rearrange the list of packages.

The default setting directory "allure-results" in the Allure task usually does not point to the actual path to result directory correctly since the path is different in different projects and environment. You need to update the setting to configure it to the actual path to the result directory manually.
According to the information you provided, the path to the result could be like this:
$(Build.SourcesDirectory)\SolutionFolder\ProjectFolder\bin\$(BuildConfiguration)\allure-results
