Question

All,

I am trying to test my grails app using Hudson. I have in grails I will run the command of test-app -unit and will recieve the following message:

Running script /home/test/grails-1.1.1/scripts/TestApp.groovy
Environment set to test

Plugin [hibernate-1.1.1] not
installed, resolving..

Reading remote plugin list …

Unable to list plugins, please check
you have a valid internet connection:
Connection timed out

Plugin ‘hibernate’ was not found in
repository. If it is not stored in a
configured repository you will need to
install it manually. Type ‘grails
list-plugins’ to find out what plugins
are available. Finished: FAILURE

I believe the reason for this is that I do not have access to an external network on the server. If I do a list-plugins there is no returns it just times out.
I also beleive that this is a grails issue not a hudson issue.

Answer 1

The answer is the following:

1. navigate to the /path/to/hudson/Jobs/JOBNAME/
2. run – grails install-plugin /location/to/grails-1.1.1/plugins/grails-hibernate-1.1.1.zip

This will install the hibernate plugin for the specific job. This workaround can also be used for other plugins needed.

This has been tested in hudson.
