I stumbled on a rake problem while using CruiseControl.rb. I think the
issue is more specific to rake though, so I’m posting about it here.
I’ve added a project to cc.rb, and modified the config script so that it
runs a shell script that contains the following:
#! /bin/sh
rake RAILS_ENV=test db:migrate
rake RAILS_ENV=test test
Here’s my problem. To set the scene, I’m intentionally making a test
fail for the time being.
When I run that script on the Ubuntu machine, and then do a ‘echo $?’, I
receive an ‘1’ as a response… aka an error code, which is to my way of
thinking, correct… and ends up making the cruise control build fail,
which is what I want.
When I do that exact same thing on the Red Hat machine, the rake test
fails, but then when I do the ‘echo $?’, I receive a ‘0’ response code
instead of the ‘1’. This then indicates to cruise control that the
build was good, which is not correct.
Any ideas?
