Hi Si,

We realise this is an issue, it was added in the 1.4.3 release. Basically,
in previous version, source control errors were ignored (totally), which was
not good. However, the new approach has now gone the opposite way and raised
too many issues!

We are going to make some changes around how the exceptions with source
control operations are logged - hopefully this will be in the next release.

Subject: [ccnet-user] Re: sticky exception status


After a little more investigation, the projects in "Exception" status
will successfully rebuild after a commit has taken place (projects
have intervalTrigger) or as reported before a build is forced.

However, it doesn't seem right that a build should be failed even
though there was no trigger condition activated which led to the
failure. It also points to changes between 1.4.0 and 1.4.3 causing
this behaviour.

FWIW, after watching this unfold for a second time, the "svn log" time
out seems to be due to a resource issue on our build server, rather
than a comms issue between servers. I realise this isn't a fault with
ccnet, but figured it might be worth mentioning.

cheers
