Can't instantiate logger

Anonymous — Mon, 23 Jan 2006 16:21:52 -0000

I am trying to install dashboard with windows xp,
cc2.2.1, dashboard1.0.5 and ant1.6.2. I am using the
antscript in my config file. So far, I have added the 3
important files to the cruisecontrol classpath, adding
them to the cruisecontrol.bat as follows:

set
CRUISE_PATH=%CRUISE_PATH%;%DISTDIR%\cruisecontrol.jar;%LIBDIR%\log4j.jar;%LIBDIR%\jdom.jar;%LIBDIR%\ant\ant.jar;%LIBDIR%\ant\ant-launcher.jar;%LIBDIR%\xerces.jar;%LIBDIR%\xalan.jar;%LIBDIR%\jakarta-oro-2.0.3.jar;%LIBDIR%\mail.jar;%LIBDIR%\junit.jar;%LIBDIR%\activation.jar;%LIBDIR%\commons-net-1.1.0.jar;%LIBDIR%\starteam-sdk.jar;%LIBDIR%\mx4j.jar;%LIBDIR%\mx4j-tools.jar;%LIBDIR%\mx4j-remote.jar;%LIBDIR%\smack.jar;%LIBDIR%\comm.jar;%LIBDIR%\x10.jar;%LIBDIR%;%LIBDIR%\dashboard-server-1.0.5.jar;.

I have also added these 3 files to the classpath of ant
in my ant script as follows:
set
CLASSPATH=%JUNIT_HOME%/junit.jar;s:/lib/dashboard-server-1.0.5.jar;s:/lib/jdom.jar;s:/lib/;.

My dashboard xml file is a stripped down version of the
example:

I have tried it with and without the multicast, nothing
seems to help. I don't know what else to try. I turn on
the debugging in ant and the only error I get back is this:

Unable to instantiate specified logger class
net.sourceforge.dashboard.cruisecontrol.CruiseBuildManager

Here is a copy of my config.xml command:

<ant buildfile="S:/dist/build.xml"

loggerClassName="net.sourceforge.dashboard.cruisecontrol.CruiseBuildManager"
uselogger="true"
usedebug="false"
usequiet="false"
antWorkingDir="S:/dist/cruiseControl/builds"
antscript="S:/dist/cruiseControl/ant.bat"
target="cruiseControl-build">
</ant>

What else can I try to do? Can anyone help?

Unable to instantiate listener net.sourceforge.dashboard.cru

I've been trying to configure this plugin without success
with ant 1.6.2, cruisecontrol 2.2.1 and dashboard 1.0.5.

Looked at the source code and noticed the last changes
were 18 months ago...

Is this plugin still maintain?

Question Regarding JBuilder Integration

Anonymous — Wed, 11 Aug 2004 22:02:55 -0000

Hi,

I am wondering if there are any speical reason for not
having JBuilder integration with Dashboard.

I am pretty familiar with JBuilder OpenTool APIs, and
I'd really love to contribute to dashboard (thus
CruiseControl) by adding an OpenTool for JBuilder.

Thanks
Shane

installation process

Xavier Méhaut — Tue, 27 Jul 2004 13:01:14 -0000

Hello,
I would like to use the dashboard eclipse plugin. But
there is not a lot of documentation. Could you please
sum up the installation process like such a thing :
* download dashboard-eclipse-plugin
* download dahsbord server
* put the dashboard-eclipse-plugin inside
$eclipse/plugins
* put the dashboard.jar file into your tomcat common/lib
dierctory (is it that?)
* open the eclipse preference page and enter data
(which ones?)
....
Could you please give such indications?
best regards
Xavier

IDEA plugin only shows "Build failed" notifications

William Pietri — Fri, 16 Jul 2004 22:59:41 -0000

I'm trying to get Dashboard going with CruiseControl
and idea. The CruiseControl part is working happily,
and it's putting out the right UDP multicast packets.

The IDEA plugin, though, only shows messages for failed
builds. The packets for BUILDING and PASSED don't
result in anthing in the UI.

Also, I was hoping that the UI would pop up when a
build failed. Is it supposed to do that? Or is that
something I should try to add?

Thanks,

William

Building & extending

William Pietri — Fri, 16 Jul 2004 22:56:14 -0000

Hi! I have dashboard kinda working with CruiseControl
and IntelliJ's IDEA. I'd like to improve the IDEA
plugin. Two questions:

Is there a development mailing list so I can coordinate
with other authors?

When I check out everything from CVS and run the
obvious ant tasks, I'm missing 'eclipselib. and
'idealib'. How do I build the project?

Thanks,

William

Eclipse/CC communication works, but no status messages.

Brett Procek — Fri, 14 May 2004 20:10:44 -0000

I'm using CC 1.0.4 and Ant 1.6.1. I finally think I have
things working together. I know this because if my build
fails, I do indeed receive the following message
autonomously from CruiseControl, which I can see inside
Eclipse Dashboard plugin:

***Build notification (5/14 1:25 PM)
Build failed

However, I cannot see any other status message that I
would like to see. Is there something wrong with my
properties file. Here it is:

eclipse 2.1.2

J. David Beutel — Fri, 14 May 2004 08:34:13 -0000

I'm trying to set up dashboard (1.0.4). I can see
events in the IDEA (4) plugin, but not the eclipse
(2.1.2) plugin.

I've configured the multicast address and port the same
as in IDEA. The DashboardView says "Connected to
publisher", but it doesn't show the build failed
message like in IDEA, and I don't see any event lights
on the toolbar like in IDEA. What's it supposed to
look like in eclipse? Any idea what I'm doing wrong?

Cheers,
