Missing artifacts on release

Question

Hi,

In my build plan I checkout from version control, then create a zip archive in a separate Script task.

Following this I create an artifact from that zip. Artifacts are shared.

Example:

The folder "static" is zipped into static-{bamboo.buildNumber}.tar.gz, The folder "www" is zipped into webapp-{bamboo.buildNumber}.tar.gz

The build contains the relevant artifacts, but when I use the "Download artifact" task in Release deployment plan, they are not found. I see under "Release contents" a mesage "No artifacts in this release".

Any idea what am I doing wrong?

I'm assuming you have created an Artifact Definition in the Job that builds the artifact.  If not, that could be the problem.  However, I've run across similar problems and it's usually the Location or Copy Pattern that is incorrect for 'finding' the artifacts.

For example, in my project, I have an artifact file that is in the PROJECT_ROOT/tmp/SOMENAME-slug-id

My configured values are:

Location: tmp

Copy Pattern: *slug-id

So applying to your case I'd try:

Location: static

Copy Pattern: *.tar.gz

Good luck
