Bamboo remote agent build fails with JAVA exception.

[mala lahon]

My Bamboo remote agent is running in CentOS 64 bit. While executing the build for remote agent it fails with the following exception:

Starting to build 'ABCDEF-Remote - Remote Agent'

... running command line: /usr/bin/ant -f /home/user/bamboo-agent-home/xml-data/build-dir/ABCDEF-REMOTE/protected/tests/build.xml build

... in : /home/user/bamboo-agent-home/xml-data/build-dir/ABCDEF-REMOTE

... using java.home: /usr

... using extra environment variables: ANT_HOME=/usr/share/ant

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/tools/ant/launch/Launcher

If I execute the remote agent command line directly in a shell on the CentOS machine running remote bamboo agent

/usr/bin/ant -f /home/user/bamboo-agent-home/xml-data/build-dir/ABCDEF-REMOTE/protected/tests/build.xml build,

the build works fine. Bamboo server is running in Windows server 32bit. Any pointer will be appreciated.

Thanks

I am thinking perhpas I should send the build command to bamboo remote agent as a shell command:

/bin/sh /usr/bin/ant -f /home/user/bamboo-agent-home/xml-data/build-dir/ABCDEF-REMOTE/protected/tests/build.xml build

At present Ant builder path for this remote agent is /usr .

Thx

If you run

export ANT_HOME=/usr/share/ant

/usr/bin/ant -f /home/user/bamboo-agent-home/xml-data/build-dir/ABCDEF-REMOTE/protected/tests/build.xml build

Does it still work?

Hi,

Thanks for your response.

As mentioned I can execute the above command locally in the CentOs machine running Bamboo remote agent and it runs fine.

In the remote agent machine

echo $ANT_HOME

/usr/share/ant

Issue here is when a build is triggered from the Bamboo server to the remote agent
