I am trying to use Invoke process to invoke an executable from my windows workflow in my TFS 2010 build.
But when I am looking at the log file it is not logging any error.
I did use WriteBuildMessage and WriteBuildwarning inside my invoke process activity.
I also set the filename,workingdirectory etc in activity.
Can someone please point out why it is not logging?
You can do something like this:
In this case you have to ensure that Message are set as follows:
With those parameters set as depicted, I catch what you seem to be after.
Furthermore, you can check in the Properties of your InvokeProcess: Set the Result into a string-variable and then set in a subsequent WriteBuildMessage this string-variable to be the Message. This way, you 'll additionally catch the return of your invoked process.
EDIT
Another common thing that you 've possibly overlooked is the BuildMessageImportance: if it is not set as High, messages do NOT appear under default Logging Verbosity (= Normal). See here for some background.
In your Invoke Process, you want to set the Result property to update a variable (returns an Int, so lets call it ExitCode), under your Invoke Process (but still in the Agent Scope) you can drop in an If, so you can set the condition of this to ExitCode <> 0 and do whatever you like on a failure (such as failing the build).
Also, as a note, if your WriteBuildMessage is not showing anything in your log, you need to set the Importance to Microsoft.TeamFoundation.Build.Client.BuildMessageImportance.High, anything lower and it wont show in the Normal logging level.

I want to store process times in my model for each agent of type Box. For this purpose I have created a Java class ProcessData.
My problem is that I always get NullPointerExceptions. I don't know if it's because of my code or the functionality of the batch block.
When the wait block reaches a certain size, all agents of type Box are routed to the batch block. The batch agent then waits in the seize block for staff member. If the agent is then seized, each agent of type Box contained in the batch agent should then get a start processing time. This is my code at enter of the delay block: box.getProcessData().add(new ProcessData(date(), duration()));. Using a constructor, I add the start time and duration as new variables to a new ProcessData entry.
To determine the end time of each Box agent I have the following code at unbatch block entry: box.getProcessData().getLast().setEnd(date());
Since I have a NullPointerException I can't tell exactly where it came from. My guess is that I have a bug with addressing the code: should I use agent. (from batch) or box. (name of original agent before batch)? Or is it not possible to give the batch agent properties that are inherited by the box agent?
First error is at unbatch, so the second code from above and second error is the following public void onExit( Box batch, Box agent ) { _unbatch_onExit_xjal( this, batch, agent ); }.
Following the screenshot of my error:
The problem you have with this model first,is that you are seizing a resource for the batch without releasing that resource... you need to release before unbatch
your error nevertheless is related to some code that you wrote in the on exit action of the unbatch block that you are unfortunately not telling us
But to discover what is null, check with a traceln() the value of the variables that are present in the on exit section of the unbatch in order to print on the screen what is null
The message that is posted every time an execution fails is too verbose and creates too much noise. Is there a way to disable or hide it somehow? We have our own error messages within the scripts and don't need a red chunk of extra text displayed in the logs. Adding an error handler that will exit with code 0 is not an option because we still need the job to fail if a step fails.
That message is Rundeck standard output in case of failure (you can manipulate the loglevel but that doesn't affect the NonZeroResultCode last line, just the text from your commands/scripts), you can suggest that here. The rest are just workarounds as you mentioned.
This occurs even using the Quiet output.
I'm trying to run this (script.exs):
System.cmd("zsh", ["-c" "com.spotify.Client"])
IO.puts("done.")
Spotify opens, but "done." never shows up on the screen. I also tried:
System.cmd("zsh", ["-c" "nohup com.spotify.Client &"])
IO.puts("done.")
My script only halts when I close the spotify window. Is it possible to run commands without waiting for it to end?
One should not spawn system tasks in a blind hope they would work properly. If the system task crashes, some actions should be taken in the calling OTP process, otherwise sooner or later it’ll crash in production and nobody would know what had happened and why.
There are many possible scenarios, I would go with Task.start_link/1 (assuming the calling process traps exits,) or with Task.async/1 accompanied by an explicit Task.await/1 somewhere in the supervision tree.
If despite everything explained above you don’t care about robustness, use Kernel.spawn/1 like below
pid = spawn(System, :cmd, ~w|zsh -c com.spotify.Client|)
# Process.monitor(pid) # yet give it a chance to handle errors
IO.puts("done.")
I am using the vscode-mock-debug git as the basis for my work.
Activation event is OnDebug, although same result
I implement provideDebugConfigurations in my DebugConfigurationProvider and its not getting called.
provideDebugConfigurations(folder: WorkspaceFolder | undefined, token?: CancellationToken): DebugConfiguration[] {
return [...my data in here];
}
the resolveDebugConfiguration (the original from mock-debug) is called, I can set a breakpoint. However the provideDebugConfigurations is never getting reached. build 1.36 of vsce. am I missing something obvious ?
this is the answer from the vscode team: https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/issues/78362
I have investigated this and it is expected behavior.
Namely, provideDebugConfigurations is only called then the debug configurations are needed to generate a launch.jsonfile. If you click on the configure command the provideDebugConfigurations will get nicely called.
However if you do not have a launch.json and you simply press Debug Start, vscode will try to start debugging without using debug configurations, but using one on the fly provided by the resolveDebugConfiguration call.
More about this can be found in our docs https://code.visualstudio.com/api/extension-guides/debugger-extension
Thus closing this as designed.
I have a file system task in an SSIS control flow. If it fails, it should not fail the package.
I can force a success on the task itself, and disableEventHander, but how can I get the whole package to return 0 (value of success)?
Set the FailParentOnFailure property of the file system task to False.
Set the MaximumErrorCount of the file system task to a number that is high enough to accommodate the number of "normal" errors you may receive while running the task.
(See the Microsoft post from 9/3/10)
Double click on the sequence line and change value to completion.
You can set ForceExecutionValue to True on the package itself and set the ForceExecutionResult to Success if you want to ALWAYS return a success, or alternatively you can set the MaximumErrorCount higher than the number of errors you have if you want to return success only when a certain number of failures happens.
