Questions[cruisecontrol](server)

I am running cruisecontrol with maven to build a Scala-project.

When I run mvn package outside cruisecontrol,the build takes less than 10 seconds, but when I invoke the build from cruisecontrol, the compilation-phase takes about 300 seconds. I am looking for hints and tips regarding how to speed up the compilation with maven.

One thing I have noticed is that CruiseControl keeps getting the error: Failed to reach dashboard instance : http://localhost:8080/dashboard/buildloop/listener either the dashboard has not started up or there is a network problem.

When I google the problem, I see that it is frequent if you don't have a in your config, but since I have this one, I am puzzled by this error.

My config.xml looks something like this:

<cruisecontrol>
        <project
                name="XXX" 
                buildafterfailed="false">

                                username="XXX"
                                password="XXX" />
                </modificationset>

I'm trying to get a service to run under a domain account. When I try to add the account, I get the error

The account name is invalid or does not exist, or the password is invalid for the account name specified

I know the account exists and the password is correct. I am also having trouble adding it manually to the "Log on as a service" setting, I get the error

An extended error has occured. Failed to save Local Policy Database

After a day of research I'm starting to suspect it has to do with it being a 2008 R2 server trying to use a 2000 domain account. I've tried to change the LAN Manager authentication level and the Minimum session security looks okay per my Google digging. I'm not sure what else I can do?

I am using CruiseControl.Net for continuous integration which is now accessing the dashboard through login plugin, which in turn is authenticating and authorizing after verifying it with a set of users saved as XML file in the CruiseControl.Net server.

Now, i need to bring in Windows Authentication to the system whereby which CruiseControl.Net server webdashboard when accessed from a client machine(local machine associated with a common server), would be authenticated and be authorized to access the CruiseControl.Net features based on the authority of the logged in users.

Kindly guide me to go ahead with this, appreciate all kinds of resources that would be helpful for achieving this.

Thanks.

I'm trying to setup phpUnderControl on Ubuntu 10.04 following this tutorial http://techportal.ibuildings.com/2009/03/03/getting-started-with-phpundercontrol/. I get to the part where it says to type in sudo phpuc example /opt/cruisecontrol but recieve the following error: Missing cli tool 'phpcb', check the PATH variable. I did a little googling but can't seem to find reference of a phpcb anywhere. Does anyone know what this is and where I might get it? Thanks.

We have CruiseControl setup across various Linux boxes in our private network, and they are used to perform the various continuous integration tasks - builds, automated tests...

Now I need to set up CruiseControl on a Windows XP box. I understand that doing so has several gotchas compared to doing it in Linux. Is there a how-to manual out there detailing the installation process? The author's site seems pretty scant on installation instructions.

Note that I need to install CruiseControl, not CruiseControl .NET.
