RTCi build engine process may not be running


Hi all,

I've installed a Build Engine on our i5 with ID RTCBLDENG. This runs perfectly. But when I define its Build Engine Definition in RTCi I get the message that it doesn't seem to be running. I created a Build definition, which points to this build engine. When I request a build, it's not carried out. I've entered the same ID in this definition. I've created a user RTCBUILD. This user is used to start the Build Engine on the i5 as well as a user for the build in RTCi. Perhaps I should enter information under "properties" in the Build Engine definition, but there is nog documentation about what to enter.

Is there something I am missing or is there additional information about the i5 Build Engine definition?

Thanks,

Ulf

Re: RTCi build engine process may not be running

In the location where you installed the build engine, i.e. <installDir>/jazz/buildsystem/buildengine/eclipse, there will be a folder with the same name as the job name with which the build engine was started. This folder will have the following files:


jbelaunch.txt: contains the parameters you used to start the build engine.
jobname.txt: contains the job name.
jbepid.txt: contains the process ID of the build engine.
jbeerr: any error messages when a build engine is running.
jbeout: any log messages when a build engine is running, including a trace of what happened when builds were requested and run

Take a look at the last two files and see if there are any messages there. The problem often is the userid and password used when starting the build engine. It has to be a valid userId that exists in the RTCi server and the password (or the encrypted password in the password file) must be correct. You will see messages in either of the files indicating the problem.
