  • Plugins for builders such as Ant, NAnt, Maven, and Xcode; source control such as CVS and SVN; and notification via email and instant messaging.
  • Other 3{^}rd^ part extensions for various report and usability.
  • Open source so extensible and customizable.

Installing CruiseControl

Info

These instructions are for a Windows installation.

...

  • If you cannot launch the dashboard, make sure Servoy is not running (see configuration tips below)
  • If the dashboard is running, but there are build errors, as indicated in the builds tab, one issue could be that your Java environment is not properly configured. The connectfour project depends on Ant being configured correctly, and if there are issues with the program reaching Ant, or if there are multiple versions on your machine, there might be issues with the build. Check your Java environment and environment variables to ensure that Ant runs properly.
  • Make sure the service actually starts. If not, check to make sure the install actually completed and that you have proper permissions in the installation location.

Configuration Tips

As CruiseControl and Servoy are both Java driven applications, they share some Java technologies, and by default, share port configurations as well. If you plan to run CruiseControl and Servoy Application Server on the same machine, port changes will need to be made one application or the other in order for the applications to work properly.

Note that parameter 3 and parameter 9 are conflicts with Servoy Application Server default ports. Change these ports to any other available port on the machine.
