Re: Freebsd 7.2
Hi, First and foremost, on FreeBSD you need to have the ports system installed. ports (7) But the 7.2 is outdated, you should upgrade to 9.1 or 8.3. For using the ports system you should read about the ports system. http://www.freebsd.org/doc/handbook/ports-using.html At 5.6.1 you'll see how to get ports (it'll installed under /usr/ports). Good luck.

Re: Jenkins master and slave workspace directory
Why don't you use the
$WORKSPACE variable? It always points to the directory where your source
code is - or in other words where your job is located.

Hi Adam,I am running
tests on both master and slaves and am specifying the test location
directory in user-extensions.js file in selenium. As the workspaces are
different in master and slave, I can't run the same job in both master
and slave depending on the load on master. If I can't make this to run
on any node, then I have to end up tying it to one node which completely
nullifies the parallel execution concept.Regards,AswiniOn

What is the reason why do
you want it to be the same?
Anyway on the master you shouldn't run tests. Only on the slaves.
The reason is:
on the master under the jobs/jobname there are the
meta infos, build history, config.xml and so on, so the "realy"
workspace is under the /workspace
On the slaves, Jenkins does not store meta info, build history, configs,
so that's why its located under:
/jobs/workspace/

Re: Possible to start/stop an existing EC2 instance
As far as I know, the EC2 instances are not support stop/start, but reboot. So you can only terminate the EC2 instances or reboot them. But you can terminate it and create another one on demand. james mintram December 31, 2012 3:00 AM Hi All,I wondered if it were possible, or not then a trivial update to the EC2 plugin to allow it to start/stop an instance that already exists.Currently I have 2 Windows instances, 1 which is 24x7 and is covered in the free tier but its performance is lacking. The other is a High CPU instance that compiles code very fast, however I do not want this running 24x7 due to cost issues, so I have to manually start/stop it when I want to run a large set of builds.If there was a way to automatically start and stop an existing instance given its ID then it finish my CI configuration for now :)Regards, James Mintram -- Adam PAPAI E-mail: w...@wooh.hu Phone: +3630 3355735 Web: http://www.wooh.hu

Are you complaining that you can add the same job to a queue multiple times? My understanding is that, if you have a build of a job running and another one in the queue, the only way to get another one onto the queue is for it to have different parameters than the one in the queue. So if your job doesn't take parameters, you can only have one build in the queue. If your job does have parameters, Jenkins won't put another build on the queue if it has the exact same parameters as one that's already on the queue. If you're queueing up multiple builds of the same job with different parameters, I don't know how to get the queue to reject the extra builds. --Rob -Original Message- From: jenkinsci-users@googlegroups.com [mailto:jenkinsci-users@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Adam PAPAI Sent: Friday, June 01, 2012 8:03 AM To: jenkinsci-users@googlegroups.com Subject: Same jobs in the queue Dear List, Recently I see that the same jobs are put in the queue.
