I'm currently trialling Continua CI (we are actively using Finalbuilder Server 7) and cannot get the Server to see the Agent Service that is running on the same machine.

The relevant services appear to be running and there are no errors I can see in the event viewer.

Is this a license issue? I thought a local agent was suppose to work without it. If it is can I apply for an evaluation license?

Thanks,

Simon. K

Hi Simon   
  
 Not a licensing issue, a local agent should register and be authorised with the server automatically. Have a loo in the agents .config file (Continua.Agent.exe.config , you should see an entry like this :   
  
 [code]\<endpoints port=“9002” serverHostName=“localhost” serverPort=“9000”/\> [/code]   
  
 Check that it lines up with the server’s settings   
 [code]\<endpoints port=“9000” serverHostName=“localhost” serverPort=“9000” serverSSHPort=“9010”/\> [/code]

Yep, it was 8080 (website) rather than 9000.   
  
 Hmmm, I must have set this incorrectly when it was installed.   
  
 It’s unfortunate that the Agent service does not report anything in the event viewer when it fails.   
  
 Thx,

We’ll look into that. I guess we decided against logging because the agent will keep retrying to connect to the server.
