Bamboo Remote Agents: What is bamboo-init.properties

Kevin Duane

What is bamboo-init.properties and how can we use it when setting up new remote agents? I see this in the logs during agent startup and we are looking to automate remote agent creation.

[RemoteAgent] Starting Bamboo Remote Agent...
[RemoteAgent] Starting application context...
[PropertyPlaceholderConfigurer] Could not load properties from class path resource [bamboo-init.properties]: class path resource [bamboo-init.properties] cannot be opened because it does not exist

Hi Kevin,

Thank you for your interest on automating remote agents creating.

Regarding to your question about bamboo-init.properties, the same is used to specify where Bamboo will (store/look for) all data once you start your Bamboo instance by using <bamboo-install>/bin/start-bamboo.(bat/sh).

As per remote agents, you should use the following command:

# &lt;agent-home&gt;, By default, the remote agent will store its data in a USER_HOME/bamboo-agent-home. If you wish to specify a different directory, add the command line parameter before the JAR file name (-Dbamboo.home=&lt;path&gt;)
# atlassian-bamboo-agent-installer-X.X.jar, where X.X represents your Bamboo version number.

java -Dbamboo.home=&lt;agent-home&gt; -jar atlassian-bamboo-agent-installer-X.X.jar http://bamboo-host-server:8085/agentServer/

Please, refer to Additional remote agent options for further information.

Kind regards,
Rafael

Mujahed,

I don't see how your error has anything to do with the topic of this thread: bamboo-init.properties.

Mujahed

I am also new for the Bamboo and I was searching for the purpose of the 'bamboo-init.properties' file. Getting the above error for the Bamboo remote agent on windows machine.

Kevin Duane

So the sole purpose of the bamboo-init.properties file is to specify the data storage location? Nothing more?

Mujahed

Hi,

The problem was with my JAVA, I reinstalled jre7 instead of the JAVA and its started working for me.

joji_johny

Hello Mujahed,

Were you able to fix the issue which you have mentioned in the logs above. Because I'm also having the same issue as:

INFO [Thread-2] [RemoteAgentHomeDirectoryLayout] Plugin cache directory: /home/bamboo/bamboo-agent-home/cach

es/plugins

[Fatal Error] -1: Premature end of file.

Exiting due to fatal exception.

Kevin Duane

Rafael,

Is there any documentation regarding the format or list of propereties we can put into the bamboo-init.properties file? The page you reference doesn't even mention the properties file.

rliu054

Thanks! This solved my problem. I was on JRE 8 and met this problem, then I rolled back to JRE 7 it worked fine. Wondering why they're not working with 8

I am stuck with getting the agent online.

- With JRE_8 i have this very same issue

[RemoteAgent] Starting Bamboo Remote Agent...
[RemoteAgent] Starting application context...
[PropertyPlaceholderConfigurer] Could not load properties from class path resource [bamboo-init.properties]: class path resource [bamboo-init.properties] cannot be opened because it does not exist

and

- With JRE_7, the remote-agent does not EVEN launch.
and the error is

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError: com/atlassian/bamboo/agent/installer/AgentInstaller : Unsupported major.minor version 52.0

At least it launches with JRE_8.

Anybody found any clue to this, i am still on my way to get the agent up-and-running and online.
