Errors when invoking build script - where to set these properties?

In my build script, I get these errors upon trying to run the script:

 

Sourcesafe.exe has not been set - where can I set the exe's path?

UserID has not been set - but I've set the username to Admin (which I use in sourcesafe to login to the repos.) - run action as user: Admin is what I have done.

 

I also haven't supplied assemblies to the NUnit task and I get an error from this, but this is fine.

But I get a final error stating that the nunit-console.exe has not been specified. Again, I can't find where to specify this? :S

 

Thanks!

Hi Gurdip,

Thanks for your post. I’m going to assume you’re using FinalBuilder 6.

These sound like Validation error messages from FinalBuilder. If you need to see them again, choose “Validate Project” from the Project menu. A project automatically Validates before it starts running.


To fix the “Sourcesafe.exe” error, just click the error message. It will open the Source Safe options dialog and you can enter a path to SS.Exe. You can also access this options page under Tools -> Options -> Version Control Systems -> Visual Source Safe (although clicking the error message is a neat shortcut.)

I’ll see if we can update the VSS actions so they automatically detect the VSS install path (most tools are automatically detected by FinalBuilder.)


The UserID error is because you need to set a VSS user ID. The “Run Action as User” option is to set a specific Windows user to run an action as, not a VSS user. You can set a default VSS User ID on the VSS options page (mentioned above), or you can use the “Override Global Options” tab in the action to specify a particular user for each action. I would recommend setting a default.


Finally, the nunit-console.exe error is similar to the SourceSafe.exe error. Some NUnit installations can be automatically detected, but some aren’t. Click the error message to open the Options page, or alternatively navigate to Tools -> Options -> Other -> Nunit (or type Nunit into the search box in the Tools -> Options dialog.)

Hopefully this answers your questions. Please let us know if you need any more help getting up and running.
