Bamboo cannot find build script on Windows boxes
Symptoms
When bamboo triggers the builder (ant) it cannot find the build script. For example,
Starting to build 'ASYNCPROC - ASYNCPROCBASE'
... running command line: D:\devtools\apache-ant-1.7.1\bin\ant.bat \-f build.xml make
... in : D:\Documents\Project\CI\Bamboo\jisano3\bamboo-home\xml-data\build-dir\ASYNCPROC-ASYNCBASE\build
... using java.home: D:\devtools\Java\jdk1.5.0_17
16-Apr-2009 06:30:00 Buildfile: build.xml does not exist\!
16-Apr-2009 06:30:00 Build failedDiagnosis
Add more debug to your Ant build (For example; to ant.bat : echo "BAMBOO" %cd%)
22-Apr-2009 11:08:35 Building started with AntBuilder command
22-Apr-2009 11:08:35 Starting to build 'Async_batch - asyncbatchplan'<br />
... running command line: D:\devtools\apache-ant-1.7.1\bin\ant.bat \-f build.xml clean test<br />
... in : D:\Bamboo\bamboo-home\xml-data\build-dir\ASYNCBATCH-ASYNCBATCHKEY\build<br />
... using java.home: D:\devtools\Java\jdk1.5.0_17<br />
... using extra environment variables: \-Dbasedir=D:\Bamboo\bamboo-home\xml-data\build-dir\ASYNCBATCH-ASYNCBATCHKEY
22-Apr-2009 11:08:35 BAMBOO D:\*
22-Apr-2009 11:08:35 Buildfile: build.xml does not exist\!
22-Apr-2009 11:08:35 Build failed
In the except above, it is clear that ant starts off in the wrong directory.
Cause
The Windows command shell has been configured to run a command when it is invoked via windows registry key,
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Command Processor
The key was set AutoRun to cd\ . Which makes all commands files automatically run from the root.
Resolution
Disable cd <root> autorun feature in the registry key to allow the command shell to start from the directory it is invoked from.
Alternatively, vote for JIRA issue BAM-3858 to be resolved.
