Resharper code style sharing with svn externals

No one to help me on this subject ?

Hi Emmanuel

^ shortcut point to a root of repository. Do your projects actually stored in the same repository?
Can you checkout new working copy outside of TeamCity successfully?

Michael

Hi Michael,

Yes, the projects are in the same repository, that's why we are using ^

There is no problem to checkout the directory using svn and/or turtoiseSvn.

Regards,

Emmanuel

We already use svn:externals with and there is no problem if it is checkouted in a sub directory (ie : ^/ReSharper/SolutionFile.5.1.ReSharper tools/MyProject.5.1.ReSharper works)

Hello Emmanuel,

  Which version of TeamCity do you use?

Hello,

The version we are using is : Version 6.0.3 (build 15925)

Regards,

Emmanuel

Emmanuel,

  Could you try using checkout on agent mode for checking out project sources? Would this resolve the problem?

  Also, please attach teamcity-vcs.log file from the TeamCity server.


  Thanks!

Hi Kirill,

I tried your solution and I don't have a problem about getting sources from SVN anymore. But the build fails because an externals was missing.
I looked on the work directory on my agent, and I noticed that all svn:externals files were not downloaded on the serveur, only svn:externals directory, and most of my projects require common externals files.

If I let the configuration using checkout mode "Automatically on server", we can find the following error into teamcity-vcs.log :

Hello Emmanuel,

  Could you please confirm that the path http://svn.global:95/repos/VisualStudioStuffs/Resharper/SolutionFile.5.1.ReSharper exists in your repository?
  Does it exists for revision 22732?

  Kind regards,
  KIR

Hell Kirill,

Yes I confirm you the path exists and is valid.
There is not problem when checkouted the project using svn directly :

Z:\tmp>svn co http://svn.global:95/repos/bac_a_sable/trunk

U   trunk
Fetching external item into 'trunk\SandBox.5.1.ReSharper'

Hello again,

  Could you please try the following:

  - Try to build using checkout on agent (as I understand, the build would fail because file externals won't be checked out).
  - Go to the build agent to the corresponding directory, where the build was running
  - run svn update command, including username, which is specified in the TeamCity VCS root settings, like svn --username <user> update
   Would it show errors? Will it checkout missing files?

  Thanks,
  KIR

Hi Kirill,

I performed you procedure, and the result are :
     1 step : The build failed because externals file are missing
     2 step : The svn up with the teamcity svn dedicated user updated missing files without any error
     3 step : Running the build step by hand (I am using rake file to build and generate artifacts) worked

Looking on teamcity options under "Edit VCS Root", I found the option "Working copy format", I updated to 1.6 (1.5 previously) and ran a new build (files are cleaned before build) and it works using checkout on agent but not using checkout on server.

It seems the checkout on server doesn't manage version 1.6, is there a way to update server files in order to manage that ?

Teamcity server is running on a dedicated 8-cores computer and the 3 agents are running on it, what is the best VCS checkout mode for this configuration ?

Using chekout on agent doesn't perform an svn export, and .svn files are on the server which is a security problem (the serveur is on a shared computer) and files are copied in my artifacts (I can change all of my rakefiles, but I prefer another solution !).

Thank you for your answer.

Regards,

Emmanuel

Hello Emmanuel,

   I've tried to replicate your environment with TeamCity 6.0.3 build - and so far it works.
  I tried this with svn:// protocol on the MacOSx machine, but our local tests run on different platforms.

  May I ask you to enable SVN debug logs and to create issue in our tracker with full logs from the server?

  Regarding your setup - for your case, I'd expect SVN checkout on agent to be slightly faster then checkout on server.
  And TeamCity definitely supports SVN 1.6 features for both modes, it is really strange that it doesn't work for you.

  Thanks and sorry for the problem :(
