[Anthill] Anthill errors when getting revision history from VSS

[Eric Minick]

Nick,

I'm curious if Anthill has been able to correctly not build when no changes
have been made to the repository or if it has been doing a full build even
when there have not been any changes. It's success in doing that would let
us know if the other effort to get the list of revisions was successful or
not. I'm sorry that I don't have a quick fix for you right now but we should
be able to get the bottom of the matter.

Eric

  Hi,

  We are getting an error from Anthill v1.6.1.59, (ERROR
com.urbancode.anthill.BuildManager  - Exception when getting revisions.), at
the end of our build when Anthill tries to get the revision history of our
project from Visual Source Safe.  The build is published without a problem,
it's just that it fails when getting the revision history.

  We've tried running the below command from the command prompt and it
completed this successfully.  We've tried removing empty folders from the
repository but this didn't help either.
  Is there something that we've missed?

  The problem appeared out of nowhere and then disappeared again just as
suddenly.  Unfortunately it has reared it's ugly head again and even though
it still publishes our application, we prefer it if the entire process would
complete successfully.

  Does anybody have an suggestions?

  Thanks,
  Nick
