I need to build my application in 'try-catch' section of nant config file, like this:
<trycatch>
<try>
<echo message="Start building MyApplication.."/>
<call target="BuildApp"/>
</try>
<catch>
<echo message="Build MyApp.sln is failed"/>
<fail/>
</catch>
</trycatch>
When build is failed it only shows the message: "Build MyApp.sln is failed", without any detailed information why it failed. How can I redirect build errors to 'catch' section and see the reason of failing?
You need to add the property attribute to the catch tag:
<trycatch>
<try>
<echo message="Start building MyApplication.."/>
<call target="BuildApp"/>
</try>
<catch property="failure.message">
<echo message="Build MyApp.sln is failed"/>
<echo message="Failure message: ${failure.message}"/>
<fail />
</catch>
</trycatch>
You could also forward the failure message via <fail message="${failure.message}" />.

Hiho,
I want to use Phing an dbdeploy with a postgres DB.
the problem is that I can not connect to the database with the connection string because I can not define a password.
Does any one has an solution for this?
The following is the deply xml:
`
<!-- load the dbdeploy task -->
<taskdef name="dbdeploy" classname="phing.tasks.ext.dbdeploy.DbDeployTask" />
<!-- these two filenames will contain the generated SQL to do the deploy and roll it back -->
<property name="build.dbdeploy.deployfile" value="scripts/deploy-${DSTAMP}${TSTAMP}.sql" />
<property name="build.dbdeploy.undofile" value="scripts/undo-${DSTAMP}${TSTAMP}.sql" />
<!-- generate the deployment scripts -->
<dbdeploy
url="pgsql:host=${db.host};dbname=${db.name}"
userid="${db.username}"
password=""
dir="${phing.dir}/sql"
outputfile="${build.dbdeploy.deployfile}"
undooutputfile="${build.dbdeploy.undofile}" />
<!-- execute the SQL - Use psql command line to avoid trouble with large
files or many statements and PDO -->
<trycatch>
<try>
<exec
command="pqsql -h${db.host} -U${db.username} -p${db.port} -d${db.name} < ${build.dbdeploy.deployfile} -W"
dir="${phing.dir}"
checkreturn="true"
output="${phing.dir}/cache/deploy-${DSTAMP}${TSTAMP}.log"
error="${phing.dir}/cache/deploy-error-${DSTAMP}${TSTAMP}.log"
/>
<echo msg="Datenbank erfolgreich ausgerollt"/>
</try>
<catch>
<echo msg="Fehler beim ausrollen der Datenbank, führe Rollback durch"/>
<exec
command="pgsql -h${db.host} -U${db.username} -p${db.port} -d${db.name} < ${build.dbdeploy.undofile}"
dir="${phing.dir}"
checkreturn="true"
/>
<echo msg="Rollback erfolgreich"/>
</catch>
</trycatch>
</target>

You can create a password file for the system user (the user which will execute the phing script).
I had to move from nant-0.86 to nant-0.92
This part of the code now fails with: Invalid element <checksum>. Unknown task or datatype.
<target name="make_one_cksum">
<!-- <echo message="ECHO za md5 ${filename}" /> -->
<checksum algorithm="MD5" fileext="MD5_nov">
<fileset>
<include name="${filename}"/>
</fileset>
</checksum>
</target>
Any suggestions to make this work again?
You will need to update your NAnt.Contrib.Task to 0.93.
Requirements
Assembly: NAnt.Contrib.Tasks (0.93.5041.0)

I am trying to attach a log file to email.
My code is:
**<loadtasks assembly=".../tasks.dll" />
<record name="c:foo\log.txt" action="Start" />
<target name="email">
<mail
from="abc#foo.com"
tolist="xyz#foo.com"
subject="Build"
message="Build Failed"
mailhost="smtp.anywhere.net">
<files>
<include name="c:foo\log.txt" />
</files>
<attachment>
<include name="c:foo\log.txt" />
</attachment>
</mail>
</target>
<record name="c:foo\log.txt" action="Close" />**
My command is:
nant -f:filename.build email -l:c:foo\log.txt
I get following error:

When i dont use <record> tasks it gives another error like, could not attach txt file. bcoz it being used by another process.
Why am I getting this error?
i do something like flush in record task , just before sending email then copy the file to attach in email , hope this workaround works
<echo>${emailsubject}</echo>
<echo>Sending Email</echo>
<echo>Attaching File : ${build.log.dir}/email_${build.log.filename}</echo>
<echo>Attaching File : ${path.vsshelper.log}/logs/email_${build.log.getlistoffiles}</echo>
<record name="${build.log.dir}/${build.log.filename}" action="Flush" level="Verbose"/>
<sleep milliseconds="5000" />
<copy file= "${build.log.dir}/${build.log.filename}" tofile="${build.log.dir}/email_${build.log.filename}" />
<copy file= "${path.vsshelper.log}/logs/${build.log.getlistoffiles}" tofile="${path.vsshelper.log}/logs/email_${build.log.getlistoffiles}" />
Make sure that the file is closed before you try to email it.
As part of a CI process I am trying to create a buildlabel which consists of the content of an xml element within an xml structure. For this purpose I am using nant and xmlpeek. My problem is that I get an odd error stating:
"Nodeindex '0' is out of range"
This is only the case if the xml file I am xmlpeeking contains a namespace definition in the root node.
Removing the namespace from the xml file gives me the output I expect.
The nant target that generates the error can be boild down to:
<target name="TDSLabel">
<property name="element" value=""/>
<echo message="Getting element" />
<xmlpeek file="C:\xxx\test1.xml" xpath="//Project/PropertyGroup/ProductVersion" property="element"/>
<echo message="The found element value was: ${element}" />
</target>
and the test1.xml file looks like this:
<Project ToolsVersion="3.5" DefaultTargets="Build" xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/developer/msbuild/2003">
<PropertyGroup>
<ProductVersion>9.0.21022</ProductVersion>
</PropertyGroup>
</Project>
You already gave the right hint yourself. It's about the namespace. This should fix it:
<target name="TDSLabel">
<property name="element" value=""/>
<echo message="Getting element" />
<xmlpeek
file="C:\xxx\test1.xml"
xpath="//x:Project/x:PropertyGroup/x:ProductVersion"
property="element"
verbose="true">
<namespaces>
<namespace prefix="x" uri="http://schemas.microsoft.com/developer/msbuild/2003" />
</namespaces>
</xmlpeek>
<echo message="The found element value was: ${element}" />
</target>
Found a similar problem and the anwser to my problem here: XmlPoke and unique nodes. The problem was that I did not include the namespace definition within the xmlpeek element and afterwards omitted the necessary reference to the namespace in my xpath statement:
<xmlpeek file="C:\xxx\test1.xml" xpath="//x:Project/x:PropertyGroup/x:ProductVersion" property="element">
<namespaces>
<namespace prefix="x" uri="http://schemas.microsoft.com/developer/msbuild/2003" />
</namespaces>
</xmlpeek>
How to run NAnt scripts in command line and get the timings of each task on the log file?
using nant <record> task or
NAnt -buildfile:testscript.build testnanttarget
This produces console output but I can't see any timing information.
All I want each log message prefixed with datatime.
You can use the tstamp task to display the current date/time. Just include it everywhere where you want timing information. It will not prefix each line with a timestamp, but at least you can time some strategic points.
<tstamp />
Here is a sample of tstamp
<echo>
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
TASK : INITIALIZE
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
</echo>
<loadtasks assembly="nantcontrib-0.85/bin/NAnt.Contrib.Tasks.dll" />
<!-- http://www.basilv.com/psd/blog/2007/how-to-add-logging-to-ant-builds -->
<tstamp>
<formatter property="timestamp" pattern="yyMMdd_HHmm"/>
</tstamp>
<property name="build.log.filename" value="build_${timestamp}.log"/>
<echo message="build.log.filename: ${build.log.filename}" />
<record name="${build.log.dir}/${build.log.filename}" action="Start" level="Verbose"/>
<echo message="Build logged to ${build.log.filename}"/>
<echo message="Build Start at: ${datetime::now()}" />
</target>
