Hi Nick, Thanks very much for the response. I intend to look into Nant as soon as I have draco happy, but I don't know how it works yet. I was using Buildit, but its a bit cranky too.
Some feedback on your comments: 1. Yes, I confirm you understand it, except that in step 7, it has been happy to run most of the day, and hangs only later, after some succesful builds. 2. I Confirm that running {DEVENV "E:\SOURCESAFE PROJECTS\APPLICATION PORTAL PROJECT\Source Code\Portal.sln" /build "Debug" /out} on the build server, successfully builds all 30 projects 3. Running {DEVENV Portal.sln /build "Debug" /out} on the build server, does not work - cannot find project file. 4. Changing the solutionfile setting to <solutionfile>portal.sln</solutionfile> means the build fails and I get the error "Portal.sln could not be found and will not be loaded." The <project> tage specifies the argument for the GET doesn't it? and the <solutionfile> specifies the argument for the build. But they are seperate processes, surely. First you get the latest version of the source, then you build that local version. So, how does devenv know where Portal.sln is if we dont tell it? It must dynamically create a temp folder. I notice every time it has crashed out, the temp folder is left behind with the downloaded sourcecode. !? So I've gone back to the full path to the Portal.sln on the E: drive. It is running again today, with some successful builds. I expect it to crash out again at some stage though. Thanks again, I will keep you posted.

Hi Andrew, Can I just confirm I understand the problem: 1. Draco Service runs on a different machine to DracoCli? 2. Draco Service runs and tries to build Portal, but simply hangs? 3. You stop Draco Service and then you cannot restart the service 4. You reboot 5. Once reboot, Draco Service restarts 6. You then use the draco client to kick start the build 7. The build begins with project Portal, and then Draco Service hangs? 8. You reboot the Draco service server Whats wrong with your bloody Dev Solution! ;-) I am running Draco Service here to build a web solution which has 5 projects in it and have no problems. However (this is possibly the problem), I use the NAnt support of Draco.NET. Something must be amiss with the something to do with that type of build. The params etc passed to DEVENV also look like they are correct. Andy, can you go to a console window on the machine running Draco Service, and enter the following (making sure you have checked the Portal project out to the current dir): DEVENV "E:\SOURCESAFE PROJECTS\APPLICATION PORTAL PROJECT\Source Code\Portal.sln" /build "Debug" /out Ah...I dont think you should be putting in the full path to the solution Andy. It should look something like this I believe: DEVENV Portal.sln /build "Debug" /out The idea is that you tell Draco to do a GET from the root project. So if you have your project checked into this project in source safe: $/SOURCESAFEPROJECTS/APPLICATIONPORTALPROJECT/SourceCode then you would have something like this in the config file: <build> <devenv> <solutionfile>portal.sln</solutionfile> </devenv> .. <vss> <project>$/SOURCESAFEPROJECTS/APPLICATIONPORTALPROJECT/SourceCode</project> ... </vss> ... </build> Try that.
