Hi Ruben,
I am on CCNET:1.4.0.3524 So can I just use the dll's? Or should I do a full install? and If I do a full install, my question would be the same as Shaun's. "Should I just run the new installer over the top of the old one? What will be the path of least resistance and least risk?" Thanks again for all your quick and succint help on this. :) -Russ On Feb 13, 3:08 pm, Ruben Willems <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi... > > read more » > > This is a 'nigtly build', to see what's been fixed in it, you can check the > road map at > :http://jira.public.thoughtworks.org/browse/CCNET?report=com.atlassian... > > i can not guarantee that the latest build will work, but I fixed issue 748: > When there is a problem with the source control during getmodifications, > the latest builds will fail the build.
