A new topic, 'Ant won't load relative changeLogs when called from a different
folder', has been made on a board you are watching.

Hi,
Just setting up some simple ant tasks for unit testing my schema scripts -
however there is an issue.
I have a top-level install changeLog in a folder
src/repository/schema/install.xml that looks like this:
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<databaseChangeLog xmlns="http://www.liquibase.org/xml/ns/dbchangelog";
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance";
xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.liquibase.org/xml/ns/dbchangelog
http://www.liquibase.org/xml/ns/dbchangelog/dbchangelog-2.0.xsd";>
<includeAll path="install/tab/" />
</databaseChangeLog>
i.e. it contains an includeAll path relative to the location of the install.xml
file. This runs fine if run from the command line in the src/repository/schema
folder.
Now, my ant build.xml script is running from a folder one level up from this,
i.e. src/repository. It contains the following basic task:
Code:
<property name="schema.dir" location="schema" />
<path id="lib.path">
<pathelement location="${src.java.lib.dir}/liquibase.jar" />
<pathelement location="${src.java.lib.dir}/jtds-1.2.5.jar" />
<pathelement path="${schema.dir}" />
</path>
<taskdef resource="liquibasetasks.properties">
<classpath refid="lib.path" />
</taskdef>
<target name="install-db" description="Updates DB">
<updateDatabase changeLogFile="${install.changelog.file}"
driver="${database.driver}"
url="${database.url}"
username="${database.username}"
password="${database.password}"
defaultSchemaName="${database.username}"
promptOnNonLocalDatabase="false"
dropFirst="false"
classpathref="lib.path" />
</target>
The problem I have is that when this is run, the includeAll tag fails with the
following error:
Code:
install-db:
[updateDatabase] Jul 28, 2010 12:03:16 PM liquibase.logging.jvm.JavaUtilLogger
info
[updateDatabase] INFO: Successfully acquired change log lock
[updateDatabase] Jul 28, 2010 12:03:17 PM liquibase.logging.jvm.JavaUtilLogger
severe
[updateDatabase] SEVERE: Error thrown as a SAXException: Could not find
directory or directory was empty for includeAll 'install/tab/'
[updateDatabase] org.xml.sax.SAXException: Could not find directory or
directory was empty for includeAll 'install/tab/'
[updateDatabase] at
liquibase.parser.core.xml.XMLChangeLogSAXHandler.startElement(XMLChangeLogSAXHandler.java:219)
i.e. it can no longer determine the relative folder with respect to the initial
install.xml file. To workaround this, I either have to use absolute pathnames
(not ideal), or I have to move my build.xml to the same folder as the
install.xml liquibase changeLogs. This also isn't ideal. Is there a way that I
can get the ant task to correctly change to the databaseChangeLog folder prior
to processing the changeLogs? I guess one solution would be to allow the
various ant tasks to take a databaseChangeLogFolder/relativeBaseDir property or
somesuch - and if defined, to change to this/resolve relative pathnames
appropriately.
I'm happy to raise this as an issue if you think it worth resolving.
Many thanks.
Ben
