if this options is on, there is only one job is running, and all other job is waiting.

Which means, two job can not run simultaneously.

Thanks for the suggestion, Ma.   
  
 We have a feature like this planned for a future release, so you should be pleasantly surprised. :).

Hi ma letto,   
  
 FinalBuilder Server 6 now supports this feature in two different ways, the first is to set a global limit on the number of concurrent builds, this option is on the ‘Configuration’ page, under ‘Global Project Settings’. The second way of achieving this is to use the ‘If Project is Running’ condition on the projects that are not to be run concurrently.   
  
 Regards,   
 Paul.

Hi Paul Samways,   
  
 I found the option you mentioned. But there is still a problem: if i set this number to 1, and try to start a project when another project is running, it give me a option to [Bypass build queue and force start immediately]. If i check this option, there is still two project running at the same time.   
 Can i remove/disable this check box?

Hi ma,   
  
No, their is no built in method for removing the checkbox.   
  
Though is is possible for you to edit the user control and hide the checkbox so that it isn't visible (but keep in mind that this is not supported and will need to be done whenever a new version of FinalBuilder Server is installed). To do this, open 'ucProjectStartPrompt.ascx' in notepad (its located in the UserControls directory of the FinalBuilder Server web site), scroll down to the checkbox with id 'CheckBoxBypass' and add style="display: none;". The line should look like this:

\< asp:CheckBox ID="CheckBoxBypass" runat="server" style="display: none;" Text="Bypass build queue and force start immediately" / \>

Regards,   
Paul.
