hudson ci doesn't run ant scripts when building

Question

I have set up hudson to download the specific jdk and ant version my ant scripts uses. i have added "invoke ant" script under "build" on the project configuration page and set it to use the jdk and ant version i wanted.

still, when building, all hudson does is to checkout from the svn and thats it, build successful.

am i missing something ?

thanks !

Answer 1

I had the same problem.

By creating a new project from scratch and then compare the config.xml in the jobs directory, I found that the problem with my first object was the following:

Somehow it had the tag <matrix-project> instead of <project> even though this was not visible in the HTML configuration. With the help of a search and replace tool like TextCrawler - which is the easiest way to deal with a lot of projects anyway - I got it working.
