Hi all,

I have built a new server with TeamCity v9.0. I am having difficulty trying to copy the build output to a mapped network drive 

X:
.

My build steps are as follows:
  1. Get latest version from TFS online.
  2. Build using MSBuild
  3. Run NUnit tests
  4. Copy two folders (Web and ServiceLayer) to a mapped network drive 
    X:

Attempted but can not get working:

  1. Created a final build step with the following 
    Command Line
    script:

xcopy %system.teamcity.build.workingDir%\ServiceLayer\ D:\ServiceLayer\ /S /Y
xcopy %system.teamcity.build.workingDir%\Web\ D:\Web\ /S /Y

Error:

Step 4/5: Copy build output to web and api on staging (Command Line)
teamcity[buildStatisticValue key='buildStageDuration:firstStepPreparation' value='70.0']
teamcity[buildStatisticValue key='buildStageDuration:buildStepRUNNER_8' value='0.0'] Starting:
D:\TeamCity\buildAgent\temp\agentTmp\custom_script9113406165823545108.cmd
in directory: D:\TeamCity\buildAgent\work\3b1161c630069aad 0 File(s)
copied Invalid path Process exited with code 4
teamcity[buildStatisticValue key='buildStageDuration:buildStepRUNNER_8' value='194.0'] Step Copy
build output to web and api on staging (Command Line) failed

  1. Created an artifact path

    ServiceLayer => d:\Temp\x.zip

Error:


Failed to publish artifacts: Failed to upload artifact, due to error:
java.io.IOException: Failed to create directory:
"C:\ProgramData\JetBrains\TeamCity\system\artifacts\ChannelOptimiser40\CO40 Build Config\224\d:\Temp"

Question
Can someone please tell me how I can copy my 

ServiceLayer
and 
Web
folders to another directory when the build completes?

Please check that the user that TC agent is running under has an access to the required environment, such as mapped drive, etc.

Hi Sergey,

I am running TeamCity from a Microsoft Windows Server 2012, so would the following steps be correct:

  1. Change the Windows Service (TeamCity Build Agent)
  2. Use the Administrator account in "Log On" properties window of that service.
  3. Restart the TeamCity Build Agent Service



Thanks in advance

As far as I remember, mapped drive is only valid within user session. I think you need to create a persistent mapping, as suggested here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/182750/map-a-network-drive-to-be-used-by-a-service. Or if you map drive to folder, there is another (but similar) procedure.

Thanks for the help Sergey.

I used the UNC path and changed the account that runs the Windows Service.

The files are now being copied to the directory.
