Adding a card to a board without a list
Asked by Pat Skerrett:

I work for a news organization. We use Trello to keep track of who is working on what and when it will be published. To date, we've been creating a list for each week, and adding cards to those weeks (see screenshot below). But if a story moves from one week to another, someone has to go in and change the week, as you can see in the Wednesday list.

Is it possible to add cards to the board without creating week-based lists and have the cards show up on the date that corresponds to the date on the card?

Any advice would be most welcome.

Answers:
author: Brittany Joiner
body: [@Pat Skerrett](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4098356) have you tried using the Calendar view to replicate what you're looking for? It will automatically plot cards in a week or month format by the due date!

You can either use the Calendar View if you're on Trello Premium, or you can use the Calendar Power-Up if you're using the free version of Trello

comments: author: Pat Skerrett
body: Many thanks for your answer, Brittany. It makes sense, but I'm not sure how to apply it. I am using the free version of Trello with the Calendar Power-up. If I try to add a card, the dialog box asks me what list I want it associated with. I believe that "Calendar events" is a list we had created (though I could be wrong about that).![Add-card.jpg](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/225156iAB74F3C4390AF761/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "Add-card.jpg")

Any suggestions on how to add a card to Trello without adding it to a prespecified list would be much appreciated.
Will Trello token length change invalidate current tokens?
Asked by Darryl:

We're assuming that the upcoming change to the length of Trello tokens is not going to affect existing tokens but we just wanted to make sure. Will all existing tokens continue to be valid and for how long?


Answers:
author: Brittany Joiner
body: [@Darryl](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4126866) existing tokens should work according to [this post on the changelog](https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/trello/changelog/)!

Is The Atlassian MarketPlace Unavailable for Bamboo version 4.4.3 build 3505?
Asked by Prasanna Vasudevan:

Downloaded the latest version of Bamboo on my MAC and not able to view plugins from MarketPlace

This the the warning message displayed.

This version of Bamboo is unknown to the Atlassian Marketplace. It may be too new to appear, or it may be some type of non-standard build.

The version of UPM is 2.8.1.

Bamboo unattended installation on Linux
Asked by Scott Burks:

I've looked on your site as well as Google but I can't seem to find much documenation, if any on unattended Bamboo installations on Linux RHEL6. What I'm doing currently is modeling the Bamboo installation/configuration via Chef recipes and I see where some of the other applications have an unattended installation and response files. Please let me know if this is a possibility with v4.4.1 or if its maybe in a future release.

Thanks,

Scott

Find who triggered manual build in bamboo?
Asked by Grzegorz Dlugoszewski:

Is there a way to check which user triggered manual stage in Bamboo? I can't find that info anywhere.

Many thanks!

Greg


Answers:
author: Adam Myatt
body: Grzegorz,

In bamboo go to the build result and select the Job for the manual stage. THen on the MetaData tab you should see a field "ManualBuildTriggerReason.userName" with a value on the right of the username who actually ran the manual stage.

Adam

comments: author: Grzegorz Dlugoszewski
body: Hmm, thanks for your answer but that's only partially true.

It is true when the whole plan was triggered manually (by clicking on "Run" button). However, my case is different:

In my plan there are two stages:

\* first stage is triggered by SVN change. I don't run it manually.

\* the second stage is a manual stage - it requires a user to click on "Run" button.

The problem is that when the first stage is triggered automatically by SVN commit and after that a user starts the second stage manually - I can't find out who started it. There's no "ManualBuildTriggerReason.userName" key in jobs' metadata.

Could it be a bug/missing feature?


author: Adam Myatt
body: What specific version of Bamboo are you using?


author: Grzegorz Dlugoszewski
body: Just upgraded to 4.4.3 (build 3505)


author: Adam Myatt
body: Seems to be driven by the Triggers (manual vs scheduled vs repo-generated). If I do a Manual build by clicking run build then the property I mentioned is in the metadata tab. If I have a scheduled build or one of the other trigger types it seems like it doesn't record the user who manually runs the Manual Stage that is paused. I would argue that is a bug (the ManualBuildTriggerReason.userName or at least some other piece of similar metadata) should be captured when a user manually continues a paused Stage.

What are the build agents requirements?
Asked by Fathi Boudra:

Build agents can be local or remote (e.g. EC2 instances). What are the build agents requirements? OS, architecture, software stack, etc...

In other words, could the build agents run on Linux/ARM architecture?


Answers:
author: Przemek Bruski
body: To receive official support, you need to use a supported platform (<https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/BAMBOO/Supported+platforms>).

That said, you should be able to run a remote agent on Linux/ARM, as long as you have a compatible JDK on it. You won't be able to use the standard wrapper that manages the agent, but apart from that it should work.
Do not install Bamboo 4.4.2 if you use Perforce
Asked by Gail Stewart:

I have found much to like in Bamboo over the past two years, but this release is making me look at other CI servers. It's going to take me a week to recover from the upgrade. Going back would take a week too. There is a bug where it cleans the workspace because of the upgrade. For perforce users this is a disaster. I have to go though all 106 projects and force sync each of them.

I want a build server that does what I want it to do but knows that the the human is in charge not the software.

This release stinks.


Answers:
author: Nic Brough -Adaptavist-
body: Have you raised this with Atlassian Support?

Thanks for the warning of course, it could save some of us a lot of pain! Which version did you upgrade from though?

comments: author: Gail Stewart
body: Yes - see [BAM-12853](https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/BAM-12853). I upgraded from 4.2.1.


author: Gail Stewart
body: <https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/BAM-12853> was report. It looks as though it will be released in version 4.4.4 and or 5. No indication when they will be shipped.


author: Adam Myatt
body: I believe Bamboo 4.4.4 was just released today that contains a fix for this issue.


author: Edward Freedman
body: I really wish I had seen this post before upgrading. I am not sure what to do at this point. There doesn't seem to be any reasonable way to downgrade the server (since all the agents have updated, as well as potentially the database schema). You would think someone would just release a tool which converts the repository xml files over to the new format out from under the agents, thus sidestepping the unwanted cleansing.

I am at a complete loss here.

Can I set a longer connection timeout for Bamboo remote agents?
Asked by Brent Villalobos:

I'm setting up some new remote agents in a distant location from the main Bamboo server and I'm running into errors when the agent starts like this:

```
INFO   | jvm 1    | 2013/02/19 11:32:55 | 2013-02-19 11:32:55,275 INFO [WrapperSimpleAppMain] [AgentContext] Requesting fingerprint, url: http://bamboo.mycompany.com:8080/agentServer/GetFingerprint.action?hostName=foo.remotedomain.com&amp;version=3&amp;agentUuid=2918f14c-9f69-484a-a05d-5c00c3a5a14cINFO   | jvm 1    | 2013/02/19 11:33:25 | Exiting due to fatal exception.INFO   | jvm 1    | 2013/02/19 11:33:25 | org.apache.commons.httpclient.ConnectTimeoutException: The host did not accept the connection within timeout of 30000 ms
```

Perhaps there are some firewall issues or something. But I would like to first test whether all I need is longer time to connect. Is there a configuration file somewhere where I can increase the connection timeout to something more than 30 seconds? I grep'd around and didn't find anything, but perhaps there is a key I don't know about that I can set in the wrapper.conf file.

Suggestions?


Answers:
author: Adam Myatt
body: Brent - try looking in the bamboo.cfg.xml file.

There is a field "bamboo.jms.broker.client.uri" and "bamboo.jms.broker.uri". They both have URLs with parameters that affect the agents, especially the first parameter which has the URL parameter :

initialReconnectDelay=30000

and

maxReconnectAttempts=1000

You can tweak these to get the desired timing. Obviously, after changing the values you need to restart Bamboo before attempting to restart the agents.

THere is also some Atlassian docs here that can affect agent performance and timings : <https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/BAMBOO/Changing+the+remote+agent+heartbeat+interval>
Auto-Starting A Custom Elastic Image
Asked by George Irwin:

Thanks to Przemek (Atlassian), I've successfully created a custom Elastic Image (AMI) which I can start through Bamboo and use to run my tests. All good.

However, what I'd like to know is how I can get Bamboo to automatically start that custom Image in order to run my tests after I have pushed changes to my BitBucket repo....? I can't seem to find any settings to force the use of my image rather than Bamboo's default image....?

Any ideas?

Thanks!


Answers:
author: Przemek Bruski
body: You can disable the the default image(s). Or, make sure that the requirements on your Jobs (accessible via Job configuration) are met only by your custom image (add some custom capabilities to them in image configuration). Both methods are equally valid.

Bamboo Fail a Build with Specific Text
Asked by Chris G:

I want to fail a build when certain text shows up in the log. Is there any way to do this in Bamboo?


Answers:
author: Brent Villalobos
body: The logs just pipe stdout and stderr. If you want to stop and fail the build as soon as the text shows up, then you would need to develop a log checking thread/process to whatever you are running. In other words, it's not a Bamboo thing.

If you can wait until the job is finished, then you can create another job in a subsequent stage that gets the log contents via an http "GET". You can use a program like curl or write up something using the scripting language of your choice. The URL is consistent and looks something like: "http://bamboo_url/download/PROJ-PLAN-JOB/build_logs/PROG-PLAN-JOB-BUILDNUM.log". The build number and build result keys are Bamboo variables. Once you have the log text, it's a simple matter of grepping for the line and then exiting with either a 0 exit code (success) or non-zero exit code (failure).

comments: author: Chris G
body: Wow, it seems crazy to me that Bamboo doesn't have a feature like this. It's an extremely useful feature of TeamCity.


author: Justin Pope
body: @chris Agreed. In TeamCity this was super easy, unfortunate to discover this limitation...

Bamboo Branches
Asked by Chris G:

I want to be able to build all of my three different environments (dev, staging and production). I'm not sure if I should be setting up three different plans or use branches. All three deployments are virtually the same with a few differences. The production build and deploy has a couple of extra steps in it that the other two don't have.

Each environment directly corresponds to a branch in our Mercurial repo. They would also trigger completely differently. I see that in the branching part of Bamboo I have the ability to change when each triggers but do I have the ability to disable tasks for a specific branch?

Our production plan should only ever get triggered manually. Part of my problem with the branching approach is that it seems really hard to tell what branch my plan is running for and I'd be really scared to go to manually build and deploy to dev and accidentally have it do the same to production.

Am I looking at this correctly? I imagine I am missing some fundamental ideas.


Answers:
author: Brent Villalobos
body: I don't think branches is what you want. The "virtually the same with a few differences" makes using branches very difficult. If I understanding Bamboo branching correctly, the branches do the exact same work as the default branch except that it gets its source code from a different location. So if you need to add different flags, extra steps, etc. then you're out of luck with branches.

Also, when you look at a project it only shows the status of the default branch and you have to dig deeper to see the status of the other branches. So if you want people to see the status of dev, staging, and production builds from the project page, you don't want to use branches.

Bamboo SSL
Asked by Victor Crudu:

Bamboo was installed using wizard and set to run as a windows service. I was trying to configure SSL on 8445 port using jetty.xml. In case jetty.xml contains settings for normal non-ssl running on port 8085 and the following connector:

\<Call name="addConnector"\>   
\<Arg\>   
\<New class="org.eclipse.jetty.server.nio.SelectChannelConnector"\>   
\<Set name="port"\>\<Property name="jetty.port" default="8085"/\>\</Set\>  
\</New\>   
\</Arg\>   
\</Call\>

everything runs ok, but as soon as I replace the above connector with the ssl one:

\<Call name="addConnector"\>  
\<Arg\>  
\<New class="org.eclipse.jetty.server.ssl.SslSelectChannelConnector"\>  
\<Arg\>  
\<New class="org.eclipse.jetty.http.ssl.SslContextFactory"\>  
\<Set name="keyStore"\>\<SystemProperty name="jetty.home" default="." /\>/keystore\</Set\>  
\<Set name="keyStorePassword"\>password\</Set\>  
\<Set name="keyManagerPassword"\>password\</Set\>  
\</New\>  
\</Arg\>  
\<Set name="port"\>8445\</Set\>  
\<Set name="maxIdleTime"\>30000\</Set\>  
\</New\>  
\</Arg\>  
\</Call\>

bamboo service shuts down after about a minute. Can someone shed some light, cause seems to be a common issue and the documentation defenitely lacks clarity and is just full of outdated workarounds.

Bamboo version 4.4.1

Thanks.


Answers:
author: Sultan Maiyaki
body: This was handled in support and it turns out that the issue was in path and extension to keystore file. The keystore file should be a .keystore and you can specify absolute paths in the jetty.xml file
Can I run a task on a Plan after a previous task has failed?
Asked by Scott Fischer:

I have a build process with \~10 steps that need to mostly be run in order. If any of the first nine steps fail, there's no need to run the rest of them. My problem arises from the last step. I want that to be run no matter what the outcome of the first 9 steps. Running steps 6-9 would be a decent sized waste of time if step 5 fails, but I still want step 10 to be called as a clean-up step.

Ideally, this would all be part of one plan, but even linking seperate plans together wouldn't be too bad. I'm really hoping that I'm missing something obvious and there's a way to do this, because otherwise the process will likely gain layers of difficulty/complexity.


Answers:
author: Brent Villalobos
body: How large are those initial steps? If you can make them all tasks within a single job, then you can specify "Final Tasks" that will run no matter what.

comments: author: Scott Fischer
body: Right. So later stages aren't called if the early stages fail, but a finalized task within the same stage *will* get called. So to do this, I need them all in the same plan. I'm losing out on the ability to do parrallel tasks, but this is more important for the process. Oh well.

Thanks. That saved me from a very large headache. :)


author: Przemek Bruski
body: Sounds like you need to make the 10th task a finalising task. You can do that from the task configuration page.
