FishEye 2.7.10 Scheduled backups
Asked by sylvia ganovska:

Manual backups are OK, but for me scheduled backups opption does not work. I have attached a screenshot with my backup settings.![](../../upfiles/fisheye_backup.png)


Answers:
author: LeonardoL
body: Hi Sylvia,

I've tested scheduled backup locally using FishEye 2.7.10 and it worked properly. One thing I've noticed is that my configuration have the following backup path:

"Backup Directory: C:\\fecru-2.7.10\\bin\\..\\backup"

which is different than yours. Have you changed the destination folder path inside config.xml? If so, could please test it again using default configuration?

Cheers,

Can't trial Crucible after having purchased Fisheye
Asked by Thomas Nagy:

We have purchased multiple Atlassian tools in the past, including FishEye. We first run a trial of each tool of interest one by one to see how well it integrates and what features each provides.

We would like to do a trial on Crucible for a future purchase, but after having followed the instructions below, the license for Crucible still seems to be in a state reported as being 'Disabled'.

<http://confluence.atlassian.com/display/CRUCIBLE/Upgrading+from+FishEye+to+Crucible>

How can we obtain a trial license for Crucible?


Answers:
author: SimonS
body: Hey there,

You can get a Crucible trial license by logging in to your Atlassian Account and clicking "new evaluation license"

<https://my.atlassian.com/products/index>

Then, just copy the license to the "Crucible" licensing section of the Fisheye admin licensing screen.

Feel free to email [sales@atlassian.com](mailto:sales@atlassian.com) if you have any troubles with this.

How to skip a svn revision in fisheye
Asked by Amit Pathak:

Hi Team,

Is there a way we can skip a particular revision while scanning a svn repository in fisheye?

We have a huge svn repository, in which a user has by mistake copied a parent folder to its child folder e.g. \*/branches copied to /branches/subfolder\* and fisheye scan just stuck at this revision.

Could you please let us know if we can skip this revision.

Thanks

Amit

JIRA to Crucible Link
Asked by Chris Kenny:

Hi

We have connected through JIRA and Crucible and have the system working end to end using the out of the box Technical Task subtask for any code review actions that are required. We have tried creating a new sub-task called 'Code Review' but when we switch the subtask type from Technical Task to Code Review we can create a subtask into JIRA but when we try to resolve it we get an error saying - this is not a subtask.

Have we missed a key piece of configuration to make sure that Crucible can recongise it?

Also looking at the JIRA database we can see that the we are misisng a sequence id and wondered whether this could be causing it?:

"11";3;"Technical task";"jira_subtask";"A technical task.";"/images/icons/ico_task.png"

"26";;"Code Review";"jira_subtask";"''";"/images/icons/removefeature.gif"

Thanks

multiple repositories for single crucible project
Asked by sri deepthi:

Is it possible to have multiple repositories ( path to modules) configured for single crucible project.

we have a situation where, our source code repository is huge and currently I'm trying to configure crucible for one of the component which is mounted on repository in multiple modules (folders in trunk).

Pleaes let me know if this possible and guide me on this.

Regards,

Sri


Answers:
author: Renjith Pillai
body: Yes you can. While adding the repository, the path parameter specifies which sub path under the repository that you need scan. So I guess you can add A,D and F as seperate ones. I haven't tried this myself.


author: Alok kumar Singh
body: Of course you can

<http://confluence.atlassian.com/display/FISHEYE/Adding+an+External+Repository>

After having multiple repositories you can select a particular repository for your crucible project.

comments: author: sri deepthi
body: Thanks Alok,

I did manage to add multiple repositories under "Repositoreis" ( fisheye). Let me put it in this way, I have subversion repository of huge sige with multiple modules ( folders) connected with different projects

I wan to setup a X project in crucible monitoring code only in A, D, F folders (modules/applications) leaveing B,C,E which are not related to X.

Please make me understand if this is possible in any way.

Regards,

Sri


author: Chii
body: @sri deepthi: crucible project X will be able to add any of the repositories A, D F to review. However, if your user has permission to view repositories B, C, and E, then they could add changesets from those repositories to reviews in crucible project X as well. There isn't a restriction on which repository a crucible project can have a review created from.

Crucible - FISHEYE_INST relocation
Asked by meena radhakrishnan:

After a complete fresh install of Crucible, I created a separate FISHEYE_INST folder, copied the config.xml from original location to this folder and created a system environment variable ( for now, later will be part of the wrapper's input parameters) for this. After a restart I see new a 'var' folder created under the FISHEYE-INST directory.

The question is, can the original 'var' folder under FISHEYE_HOME be deleted? If not deleted would that cause any problems?

Help needed for scanning huge repository to get history from last 1 week only
Asked by Amit Pathak:

Hi Team,

We have one very huge svn repository which we need to scan in fisheye. We do not want to scan the repository from scratch as it will take a huge amount of time. The team has agreed to scan only recent data (from last one week).

To achieve this, we have setup the fisheye repository and provided the initial revision in advance settings, however, when we start the scan it gets stuck at some revisions and keep on scanning the same indefinitely.

Could you please guide us, how we should set this up. Please let us know if you need more information.

Thanks

Amit


Answers:
author: Felipe Kraemer
body: Hi Amit,

Are you able to determine the size of these initial revisions? For example, are there any huge files committed? How many files are committed in each of these initial revisions?

Also, do you see any errors in the FishEye log files?

Maybe you could consider reducing the [Block Size](https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/FISHEYE/Subversion) parameter, as it controls how many revisions FishEye will pull down from the repository in one batch. Larger values can reduce the time it takes for FishEye to scan your repository for changes, but use more memory. Smaller values can reduce the amount of memory FishEye uses during scans. The default is 400. However, this requires a repository restart.

Kind regards,  
Felipe Kraemer
How does Crucible (with light fisheye) work?
Asked by meena radhakrishnan:

Does it use an in-built web server?

Does is use Jetty?


Answers:
author: JamieA
body: Yes, and yes. Instead of having fisheye index all your repos, it just pulls revisions from subversion or whatever VCS "on-demand".

comments: author: Pankaj Pimple
body: Hi Jamie,

Thanks for the information.

\>\>it just pulls revisions from subversion or whatever VCS "on-demand".

My understanding regarding thi sentence is, if I want to do the review of perforce changelist 1234 then I will only index this changelist i.e. 1234. Please correct me if I am wrong.

OR

on-demand is something else here because when I checked with Atlassian suppor they told me that the information on-demand os not correct.

Could you please give more details on this?

Thanks,

Source 'XXX' does not support changesets.
Asked by Alon Peled:

When trying to create a review I get the following error:

A com.cenqua.crucible.revision.source.SourceException was encountered  

Source 'XXX' does not support changesets.

I am using perforce SCM, files can be viewed, but no review can be created by manually selecting files (source repository is listed as unavailable) or when viewing a specifc changeset.


Answers:
author: seb
body: Hi Alon,

Which version of FishEye/Crucible are you running, and how have you configured your p4 repository? You should note that the Light SCM configurations which were used in a Crucible only environment have been deprecated for version 2.4 onwards, in favour of native repository access which uses FishEye's code paths. For more information, have a read of our documentation: <http://confluence.atlassian.com/display/CRUCIBLE/Advantages+of+Native+Repository+Access+over+lightSCM+plugins>

Is this a new installation of Crucible or is it a problem which only just started appearing?

comments: author: Alon Peled
body: I had mistakenly configured both native and Light SCM. Deleting the Light SCM repository solved the issue.

Thanks!
How to exclude closed branches from branch list in "Add Content to Review" page
Asked by David Leach:

Our development process is to create a branch when working on a ticket then have a code review from that branch. When approved the branch is merged into the release branch and it is closed. The problem is that we are starting to have a large number of branches... most of which are closed.

So when you go to "Add Content to Review \<\>" the branch selection is fairly large. It would be useful if this area could behave a bit more like TortoiseHg where it only displays the active branches for selection.... is there a way to currently do this?

Fisheye sends repeated commit notifications
Asked by KC_Baltz:

I have a watch on our CVS repository and sometimes Fisheye seems to get stuck and keeps sending the alert email for the same commit over and over again. There's one going on right now that was committed days ago and I've received dozens of identical emails for it. Is there a way to prevent this?


Answers:
author: KC Baltz
body: I have yet to find an answer to this. As a workaround, deleting and re-adding the watch that triggered the email stops it temporarily but it always comes back.


author: Thomas Krug
body: Please go ahead and give this to Atlassian Support. Maybe this is a CVS indexer bug. I am only working with subversion repositories and this is working fine.

Please also make sure to use the current version of fisheye <http://www.atlassian.com/software/fisheye/download>


author: KC_Baltz
body: Other watchers experience this as well and the email log for Fisheye confirms it is actually sending multiple emails.


author: Thomas Krug
body: That's the normal log entry from fisheye. Is this an issue for all watchers or just you?

The only other thing I can think of (besides contacting Atlassian support with this issue) is check the mail headers to rule out mail relay problems.


author: KC_Baltz
body: I don't see anything in the debug log related to 'index'.

I see something like this every 5 minutes:

fisheye.app CvsHistoryChangeDetector-doPeriodicScan - periodic full scan

But I'm assuming that is normal.


author: Thomas Krug
body: Could you check fisheye's debug log for any index issues?

I'm just starting to use Fisheye/Crucible tool. My dashboard only shows commits for me (we don't have any reviews set, so I only expect to see commits) but it doesn't show commits for anyone else.

How to filter out files for review when selecting a Change Set
Asked by Jim Foster:

I would like to know if it is possible to configure Crucible to filter out certain kinds of files, by wildcard file name, when a Change Set is selected for review.

Our projects contain files that get updated, but do not need to be reviewed. Namely, generated code and project files. For example I would like to filter out, \*.sln, \*.csproj, \*.dbml, \*.Designer.cs (but not \*.cs).

Thanks,

Jim


Answers:
author: Renjith Pillai
body: It's a bit other way. First you add the changeset and then remove what is not needed. Refer <http://confluence.atlassian.com/display/CRUCIBLE/Selecting+the+Files+for+the+Review#SelectingtheFilesfortheReview-SelectingChangesetsforReview>

The section says
> Click the checkbox next to a changeset ID to add the entire changeset. Note,
>
> * You cannot add individual file revisions to a review, although you can remove them once the changeset is added. Click '**Remove all revisions from review**' to remove all.

comments: author: Jim Foster
body: Thanks for the answer. Yes, I knew I could do that, I was just *hoping* that there was a way of adding a permenant filter up front so that I would not have to go in and remove files from each and every review. Thanks anyway.


author: Chii
body: You can add files to review using the 'search for files' option instead of changeset, then click on the advanced search (see <https://img.skitch.com/20121012-dic6ebfc698n1mytgyky8sab81.png> and <https://img.skitch.com/20121012-ria7736dcafn7kncdmbmn53r2m.png> ). You can then specify an eyeQL search for the specific changeset that you wish to review, and add in a filter to filter out all of the revisions that doesn't conform to your policy.

for example, to filter out all the xml and the zip files, use:

```
select revisions from dir "/" where csid=0c586d07b407c86ea24a5971bc953f24546037eb and (path not like "*.xml" and path not like "*.zip")
```

doing this will give you a list of revisions for the changeset, and you can then add them easily.


author: Jim Foster
body: Hey Joe,

So where does that csid come from? And is that select storable in Cruible so it does not need to be typed each time? The list in the original post was just a sample list of things to filter out.
Developer code review participation
Asked by Daniel Weiland:

I have 15 developers that review code within the group, and review code from other groups. I need a report that has information similar to "Joe particpated in 10 code reviews, Ann participated in 5, John partiicpated in 0". Dates of the code review participation would be helpful as well.


Answers:
author: Renjith Pillai
body: A solution external to Crucible, if you are not planning to write a plugin for this, is to use this tool, dump the Crucible reviews to an xls and generate whatever reports that you need.

DVCS with OnDemand
Asked by YOO Jira:

Hi guys

Currently we are using the jira on demand product from atlassian with fisheye-crucible-svn.

We want to go on using this great products and this great integration of a vcs but we would prefer a dvcs.

I now found bitbucket and github integration and so on.

what would you propose me if i want:

- only privat repositories

- the same integration as the svn

thank you for your help in advance


Answers:
author: LucasA
body: Hello,

Note that you can set the permission levels for your repos, so private or not, you can decide. About SVN integration, we are discontinuing FeCru OnDemand and Subversion, so you can still using DVCS connector with GitHUB or Bitbucket.

If you still have any doubt about that, please raise a support ticket at <https://support.atlassian.net>
