CruiseControl has a nice service wrapper for windows to start CruiseControl automatically on booting

  • 0

CruiseControl has a nice service wrapper for windows to start CruiseControl automatically on booting up the computer. This could be very helpful if only the wrapper would not start CruiseControl in the installation directory.

Honestly: which self respecting build manager would mix build work and configuration files and application file of the build tool in one directory structure?

None of course. So is there a way to specify the directory in which wrapper.exe start the CruiseControl? Or any alternative trick to archive a similar result.

    You can use the wrapper.working.dir to archive this. Note that wrapper.working.dir will result in a change directory somewhere along the line so you should make all path names in your wrapper.conf absolute:

      6  wrapper.working.dir=C:/Work/CruiseControl
 16  wrapper.java.classpath.1=C:/opt/CruiseControl/2.8.4/lib/wrapper/*.jar
 17  wrapper.java.classpath.2=C:/opt/CruiseControl/2.8.4/lib/*.jar
 20  wrapper.java.library.path.1=C:/opt/CruiseControl/2.8.4/lib/wrapper
 56  wrapper.logfile=C:/Work/CruiseControl/logs/wrapper.log
