Why won't Bamboo scan for specs?

[Dov Frankel]

I've followed all the instructions from the Atlassian wiki for creating a Bamboo Specs repo (using Java specs). I can test and publish locally, but when I set up the repo as a Specs Repo, I only ever see "This repository was never scanned". When I click the Scan button, a message comes up saying that scanning started, but then nothing happens, and I don't see any conclusive errors in the logs. I tried using Docker, and not using Docker. I do have Docker installed on the machine instance (we're running in AWS), but don't see any images listed when I run the "docker images" command over SSH.

I'm not sure what further steps I should take to troubleshoot this. I've already tried all the suggestions in the first item of https://confluence.atlassian.com/bamboo/bamboo-specs-troubleshooting-938844477.html

Do you have bamboo-specs folder in a root of your repository?

Here's a screenshot of what the project looks like:

Should "src" be named "bamboo-specs"? I created the project with the Maven Archetype the way the tutorial had me do.

This is my pom.xml's contents (sorry, pasting stripped indentation):

All content of your repo root should be at bamboo-specs folder

/-bamboo-specs
  |-src
  |  \java 
  |-pom.xml

[Dov Frankel]

Oh... ok. I'll give that a shot. Is that documented and I just missed it? If so, can you please point me there to make sure I didn't miss anything else?

Note: You must create Bamboo Specs in the bamboo-specs directory, under the repository root.

[Einar Coutin]

It is important to notice that the java file should be at the root folder with the rest of the content inside bamboo-specs. Don't create bamboo-specs with the java specs in it and then have separate folders.

@Alexey Chystoprudov For 6.8 the error logs and success logs are empty.

@Dov Frankel Did you ever figure this out? I'm having the same issue and I can't find any Atlassian documentation that discusses the naming conventions for spec files and how the scan process locates them.

[Dov Frankel]

Yes, if you look at the accepted answer thread, you'll see the whole project needs to be inside a `bamboo-specs` directory. That's the piece I was missing.

[RobertV]

Thanks. I'm not sure how I missed that.
