Searching for errors and repeating actions

 

Hi
 
I'm trying to find the efficient way to work with FinalBuilder when getting build errors – here are 2 question
1. Currently when the build failed I manually exporting the log file to a text files and then search for the error in it
Since when using the FB search the results are the entire action log that contain the search string and it doesn't bring you to the relevant line ( also the search string is in bold but not colored )
 
2. In case several actions in my actions list fail I have to repeat them
So I'm manually go over the actions and disable all marked as completed.
 
Are there any suggestions \ tricks ?

You can click on the "Show all Error Actions" button in the log view to filter the log to show only those that failed.

If you have actions that regularly fail (for what ever reason) and might succeed when run again, you can configure them to try again

Both suggestion doesn’t really help me
1. “Show all Error Actions” will show the actions that fail but if the action log has 2000 lines it doesn’t being me to the error itself and I will need to scroll \ search the log to the error.

I would expect a way to search for a string in the log, when finding the first string It will be highlighted and get you to relevant string + option to search for next one ( like in a regular text editor )

2. The actions are .net build that run over night so at the first round I need to run all actions
also the error will not be fixed automatically by running the action several times since I will need to do a fix in source code to fix it

I would expect a way to disable all action that have completed successfully or when running the action for the second tume the actions that were completed successfully will be colored

What you are asking is not possible at the moment. We have a feature request on our todo list to improve searching in the logs, but I can’t make any promises as to when that will be done.
