Question

i’ve configured the hudson with ant to compile the project, which is working fine.

After the compile i want the script to upload the output directory to the remote ftp server.

This is the ant script i’m using:

<target name="deploy">
    <ftp server="${ftp.url}"
        port="${ftp.port}"
        remotedir="${ftp.dir}"
        userid="${ftp.user}"
        verbose="yes"
        password="${ftp.pass}">
        <fileset dir="${basedir}${output.dir}">
          <include name="**/*"/>
        </fileset>
    </ftp>
</target>

It is working!

Before each compile, the hudson reverts all of the changed files. ( basicaly there are 2, the version file, and the compiled file ).

I want the script to upload only the newer files to the server. But when i’m adding to ftp node an attribute: depends="yes" or newer="yes", i’m getting and error:
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/oro/text/regex/MalformedPatternException

Ant is using these jar files:

– ant-contrib-1.0b3.jar

– commons-net-1.4.1.jar

Any suggestions? If need more information ask.

Answer 1

You need to add jakarta-oro to the classpath, this information is buried a bit in the installing apache ant guid

jakarta-oro 2.0.8 or later is required together with commons-net
1.4.0. For all users, a minimum version of commons-net of 1.4.0 is recommended. Earlier versions did not support the full range of
configuration options, and 1.4.0 is needed to compile Ant.
