Hello Jeff, now the SSL certificate error crops up (invalid certificate) when running the xinc.. But when I try using shell, the svn info works. Since it works in background no prompt for supplying user input… P to permanently accept the certificate..

Hello Jeff..!!
I understood where the repository url come from, seeing the Svn.php file..
Its is from the svn info from the local working directory. A segment named url will be there in the xml returned..

Thanks for all your help..

Hello Jeff, I tried to install PHPUnderControl and played with it so long with the java errors through out. So I went for Xinc.

Thank you for your reply. I do check out the working copy from the repository to the CI server in a directory. Say, /var/www/xinc/projects/myproject and I specified that as the directory attribute. I also specified the “username” and “password” of the remote svn server here.

My remote repository url is https://192.168.0.99/path/to/my/remote/svn/projects/myproject.
I can’t find a way to specify this path in Xinc.
Only information I got is to use the path attribute in the ini file – But there can be only one path segment data in ini file. What if I have other projects in the remote repository myproject1 or myproject2..

Even when I specified my full repository url path to “myproject” in the ini file, the build is not triggered when the repository is changed…

Hope you got the situation where I am..

Thank you again for your reply.

Hi, Kiran:

One disclaimer: I use phpUnderControl these days, but IIRC, the SVN task modificationset task only has support for the directory attribute.

For each project, check out a working copy on your CI server and point that SVN task to the working copy path via the directory attribute. In this way each project can have its own working copy and not be influenced by other projects.

Does that help?

Hello, I am caught up with the repository url specification in the svn task, under modification set.

After much googling and investigation I found out that the path segment in the xinc.ini file is used here. So is it possible to specify the repository url in a per project basis?

Any information regarding this is much appreciated..
