Hi there,  
  
we dont get any Mail-Notification if we dont use any Buil-Runner.  
We use Commandline-Compiler and all works fine.  
But how we can use the Notification for Build-Success?

Use of a build runner has nothing to do with whether you get notifications. You need to create subscriptions to notification events. You also need to configure your email and/or xmpp publisher :

We do…  
  
Group:  
Name: Notify PH Testrelease  
Description: Empty  
Members: Sascha I.  
  
Subscription:  
Name: Test  
Group: Notify PH Testrelease  
Source: PowerHaus  
Notification Type: Build Success  
Pulisher: Email  
Enabled: True  
  
when does the event for “Build Success” happen?  
  
We get EMails from Continua in case of a new Server Log Message.  
So Mail Basicly works

Hi Sascha, thank you for your post. Unfortunately we have not been able to replicate this issue.   
  
 First thing to doublecheck would be that the group membership for ‘Notify PH Testrelease’ contains the users you are expecting.   
  
 In order to look further into this one we will require some additional information please (if any of this information is sensitive please send the information to [support@finalbuilder.com](mailto:support@finalbuilder.com)):   
  
 1) Continua version number and edition:   
 eg. v1.0.0.3205 64 bit   
  
 2) Operating system for Continua and agents:   
 eg. Windows Server 2012 R2 Standard (Continua Server), Windows 8.1 Pro 32 bit (Agents)   
  
 3) Database platform:   
 eg. bundled PostgreSQL   
  
 4) How much CPU / RAM / Diskspace do you have free on the Continua server, agents, and database:   
 eg. 20% free cpu, 40% free RAM (10gig), 50% free hard disk (50 gig)   
  
 5) Screenshots of your setup (including the build that should have triggered the success message, the subscriber and publisher settings).

But,  
exactly when the Mail event “Build Success” is triggered?

Hi Sascha   
  
 This is very strange. Do you have any individual subscriptions for your user only?

No, there is no other subscription for this user.  
  
Can we check any logs from the Continua? (Debug mode…or something like that)  
I want to make sure, the continua send this email.

I will check with the team tomorrow, not sure if there is any debug logging in that area, we tend to add debug logging as needed when investigating issues, we have not had any issues like this before. We’ll do some testing and see if we can replicate the problem first.

 Thanks again for your support.
