I'm occassionally getting errors of this kind when building:
org.gradle.api.UncheckedIOException: Could not remove entry
'/var/tmp/build/foo/ubuntu-10.04-64/foo/dependency-cache' from cache
'/ext/home/build/.gradle/caches/0.9-preview-3/outputFileStates/cache.bin'.
Caused by: org.gradle.cache.btree.CorruptedCacheException: Corrupted
IndexBlock 649964 found in cache
'/ext/home/build/.gradle/caches/0.9-preview-3/outputFileStates/cache.bin'.
at
org.gradle.cache.btree.FileBackedBlockStore$BlockImpl.blockCorruptedException(FileBackedBlockStore.java:239)
Firstly, yes, we're still using 0.9-preview-3. If there are cache related
changes/fixes in 0.9-rc1, then maybe there's nothing to see here. I'm
reluctant to move to 0.9-rc1 currently as we're approaching a very hard
deadline and I don't want to introduce any issues. The current system works,
albeit with some hiccups. But hiccups I can deal with. Deleting the caches
seems to resolve this issue.
A little background: we have an automated build system where a "build" user
checks if there have been recent svn checkins into a project. If so, it
checks out the code and builds it to a central repository. This can happen
for many projects at the same time and so multiple gradle processes would
access the gradle caches simultaneously.
The other issue is that since this automated build process checks out the
code to a new, unique tmp directory every time its going to build, gradle
sees this as a completely new build and creates a new directory in
~/.gradle/caches/0.9-preview-3/scripts for the compiled build scripts. It
seems to use a hash of the project directory path. These never get cleaned
out so we're actually running into the subdirectory file system limit (e.g.
a directory can't hold more than 32768 subdirectories in EXT2). The easy
workaround is to just clean out that directory via a cron job, but this is
probably a gradle issue.
I guess the short of it is, has anyone seen these issues before (I don't see
anything in JIRA)? I'm assuming they're a bit unique due to our
infrastructure. Would 0.9-rc-1 help? Since I'm not running the rc1 I haven't
filed these in JIRA yet.
