Hudson 1.359, Promoted Builds Plugin 1.7, Ubuntu 10.4, Firefox and Opera.
I am trying to fingerprint a file (date.txt) when a job gets promoted. I added a promotion action to do it and entered "date.txt" in the fingerprinting form that gets created into the promotion box.
This file is different from the file I fingerprint as a post-build task (revision.txt)
The problem is: only one setup of the fingerprinting form is saved when I submit my job configuration.
In other words: if I reload the configuration, the file date.txt appears both in the promotion action fingerprinting form (which is right) and in the post-build fingerprinting form (which is wrong: it should be revision.txt).
Here is my setup:
I have 4 jobs:
- MainTask
- SubTask1
- SubTask2
- DailyRelease
The first 3 jobs are fingerprinting a file with a revision number (revision.txt), and MainTask gets promoted if both SubTask1 and SubTask2 succeed (and if the fingerprint of their revisions matches).
If MainTask gets promoted, it should fingerprint a file containing the date (date.txt).
The last job runs once a day, and always fingerprints a file containing the date (date.txt). It gets promoted if MainTask is successful (and if the fingerprint of their dates matches).
The purpose of this setup is to have a hierarchical promotion process that returns only one promoted release per day. It was the first idea I came with when I thought about how to achieve such a promotion process.
I don't know if there are easier ways to do it, but I think the principle it good. It should work, but this bug is preventing it.
