I was reminded
that topic was still hanging out there without a published resolution, so
thought I’d throw out a pointer to the solution so that others would be
able to find it when searching through the NAnt archives. There is an issue
with getting from VSS recursively in VSS 6.0d which is documented in this MSDN KB837417
document. The solution (if
you have the exact issue described in the KB) is to call Microsoft Tech Support
for the free Hotfix. This Hotfix isn’t just sitting on the web for
download, once they confirm you have this issue, they will send you a password
protected link (which appears to change every seven days) and then you can
download the Hotfix which resolved this issue. There is an
automation label related KB892518
which is resolved with the same Hotfix. Happy “getting”… ~Robert Subject: [NAnt-users]
Error with vssget When I execute the below sample script I get the following
error. Failed to open database
"\\servername\vss\srcsafe.ini". The specified
module could not be
found.
The odd thing is that it works fine on one workstation, but
not another (both WinXP)… It appears to be entirely an environmental
condition…but what? It historically has been working fine. What might
cause this particular error? I am able to access the VSS share and open VSS via
the GUI from the workstation in question. I have several scripts that suddenly
are failing with this error. I’m using RC2. <?xml version="1.0"?> <project name="Test"
default="testing"> <property name="vssPath"
value="\\servername\vss\srcsafe.ini" unless="${property::exists('vssPath')}"/> <target name="testing"> <vssget
localpath="C:\temp\BuildTools"
recursive="true"
replace="true"
writable="true"
removedeleted="true"
dbpath="${vssPath}"
path="$/Applications/Branch/5065/BuildTools" />
</target> </project>
Thanks for any thoughts on the
topic… ~Robert |
