How to make a zimbra developer build?

[JoshuaPrismon]

inject:
     [echo] Inserting default contacts: user1@jamie
     [java] Exception in thread "main" java.io.FileNotFoundException: data\soap\samplecontacts.xml (The system cannot find the file specified)
     [java] at java.io.FileInputStream.open(Native Method)
     [java] at java.io.FileInputStream.<init>(FileInputStream.java:106)
     [java] at com.zimbra.common.util.ByteUtil.getContent(ByteUtil.java:86)
     [java] at com.zimbra.soap.SoapTestHarness.runTests(SoapTestHarness.java:240)
     [java] at com.zimbra.soap.SoapTestHarness.main(SoapTestHarness.java:199)

This problem has been hanging around for a bit, and I can't find a copy of the samplecontacts.xml anywhere. Is there a way to generate a new one for testing? There was a workaround which basically got rid of the failure when the program isn't found, but contacts would be nice.

Thanks,

Did you run admin-deploy?

I found the issue with https relating to the Tomcat native dll. After reinstalling tomcat without the native dll the problem seem to disappear.

Now I run into the same problem that you are facing with samplecontacts.xml. (I think, I didn't have the issue before reinstalling, but I am may be wrong).

I wonder what is the solution to the samplecontacts.xml issue.

Cheers,

Edit the build.xml and edit the inject task so that it doesn't fail on error:
See the failonerror="false" below:

	<target name="inject" depends="compile">
		<echo>Inserting default contacts: user1@${zimbra.server.hostname}</echo>
		<java classname="com.zimbra.soap.SoapTestHarness" fork="true" classpathref="class.path" failonerror="false">
			<arg line="-f data/soap/samplecontacts.xml" />
		</java>
		<echo>Creating default search folders: user1@${zimbra.server.hostname}</echo>
		<java classname="com.zimbra.soap.SoapTestHarness" fork="true" classpathref="class.path" failonerror="false">
			<arg line="-f data/soap/samplesearchfolders.xml" />
		</java>
		<echo message="Wait for lmtp host=${lmtp.host} port=${lmtp.port}" />
		<waitfor checkevery="1" checkeveryunit="second" maxwait="60" maxwaitunit="second">
			<socket server="${lmtp.host}" port="${lmtp.port}" />
		</waitfor>
		<echo>LmtpInject messages</echo>
		<java classname="com.zimbra.cs.lmtpserver.utils.LmtpInject" fork="true" classpathref="class.path" failonerror="false">
			<arg line="-t ${lmtpinject.numthreads} -a ${lmtp.host} -p ${lmtp.port} -r user1@${zimbra.server.hostname} -s ho@example.zimbra.com -d" />
			<arg path="data/TestMailRaw" />
		</java>
		<echo>Importing Wiki documents for user1</echo>
		<java classname="com.zimbra.cs.account.ProvUtil" fork="true" classpathref="class.path" failonerror="true">
			<arg line="-l impn user1@${zimbra.server.hostname} test123 data/wiki/user1 /" />
		</java>
	</target>

	<target name="inject-npscontacts" depends="compile">
		<echo>Inserting NPS contacts: user4@${zimbra.server.hostname}</echo>
		<java classname="com.zimbra.soap.SoapTestHarness" fork="true" classpathref="class.path" failonerror="true">
			<arg line="-f data/soap/nps-contacts-orig.xml" />
		</java>
	</target>

This works like a champ. I haven't yet hooked it up to a debugger (I particularly care about getting the servlet's under a debugger - proxy servlet in particular so I can monitor connections to/from zimlets)

Sorry, I had done that, but I forgot to add it to the install script. I will add that fact.

One thing that I noticed was that Java5 works, but Java6 doesn't. It might be that I hadn't setup my environment properly, but I think that for now it might be Java5 only.

I feel like I've followed the instructions for building Frank on Windows to the letter, but after logging in to the client using the test user the page displays the Zimbra "Loading ..." screen and never jumps away from that screen to the actual client. Any ideas?

The usual reasons for that are: firewall; SElinux enabled; pop-up vlockers or add-ons in the browser. Try disabling any firewall or selinux first. Can you login to the admin ui?

I assume all the services are running? Does a 'zmcontrol status' run as the Zimbra user show the services?

Ah, no, it was far simpler and more embarrassing than that. I only THOUGHT I was building Frank. I was actually up in the TRUNK.

Everything is fine now. Nothing to see here.

Thanks for the help, though.

I am working on getting this to build on feisty fawn. So far so good, until I hit the reset-the-world. I appear to be hitting permissions issue. The build requires root (for killing openldap), but when I use root, I run into permissions errors when trying to open redolog which kills tomcat ;-(

Anyone seen this before? I am trying different permutations to see what works best. Thank you very much Zimbra guys for making this available.
Running ant outside of eclipse seemed to fix this.

This is building very well now, until I try to create the Wiki:

init-wiki:

     [java] Initializing folders 
     [java] Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NullPointerException
