We upgraded to a 1.6 release about a month ago and about a week in we
started seeing this error in the e-mail publishers. The
ccservice.exe.config may have changed between upgrade and when the
failure started happening but I can't tell for sure.
We have version 1.6.7922.1
I was thinking of getting the latest version but it's kind of a pain
in the butt to upgrade so I'd like to know if we're just doing
something wrong first or if there is a bug.
Here is what I believe to be the relevant snip of our
ccservice.exe.config file:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<configuration>
<configSections>
<section name="xslFiles"
type="ThoughtWorks.CruiseControl.Core.Config.XslFilesSectionHandler,ThoughtWorks.CruiseControl.Core"/
>
<section name="log4net"
type="log4net.Config.Log4NetConfigurationSectionHandler, log4net"/>
<section name="cruiseServer"
type="ThoughtWorks.CruiseControl.Core.Config.ServerConfigurationHandler,ThoughtWorks.CruiseControl.Core"/
>
</configSections>
<!-- Specifies the stylesheets that are used to transform the build
results when using the EmailPublisher -->

<xslFile>xsl\unittests.xsl</xslFile>

<xslFile>xsl\compile-msbuild.xsl</xslFile>
</xslFiles>
...snip.
