[Anthill] Scheduled builds not working with Subversion

[Iwan]

Hi Ray,

This is sort of a known problem. It has occured by many users and there never seemed to be a solution other than to either a) create a new schedule/timer or b) create a new Anthill project and have that use the schedule you refer to.

I've been using Anthill for over a year now. At first all worked fine, then one day the timer would run down to 0 and Anthill wouldn't start the build. With the help of the people on the mailinglist I dug into the log-files of Anthill and it seemed as if Anthill wasn't 'seeing' that anything changed in CVS (I'm using CVS btw). So Anthill did check out the sources but didn't notice the changes in CVS. I created a new identical project in Anthill and everything started working again. Even when I recently moved to the latest Anthill build.
But just a few days ago I upgraded my server to JBoss 3.2.5 and now I'm experiencing the same old problems again. So I'm back at recreating the project again, which I will do tonight if time allows it.

My environment:
- Anthill 1.7.0.162
- JBoss/Tomcat 3.2.5
- JDK 1.4.2_04
- Windows 2000 SP1
- Ant 1.5.1
