Builds Not Running Same Day Every Week

Question

I am sure there is a simple explanation for this but I don't know where to start.  Every week, my builds are not working on the same 2 days.  This is happening to multiple builds which are setup 1 hour apart.  These builds work fine on Monday & Tuesday but not on Wednesday and Thursday.

I have already checked the builds and verified that it will build Monday - Friday, so it is not a simple configuration problem.  I also verified that the date on the build agent and TFS server are the same.

Where can I start looking?

Answer 1

Hi Eric,

 

Will there a build on Saturday or Sunday?

If so, other member had the same issue.  As Madhuri mentioned, The issue was identified and fixed for the next release (TFS 2010) but unfortunately no hotfix was issued for TFS 2008. So you will have to continue using the workaround (i.e. schedule builds 2 days earlier or every day of the week)

Best Regards.

Answer 2

Ruiz,

Yes, the builds were working on Saturday but not Sunday which is fine since there were no code changes on Saturday.  I have implemented the workaround (selecting all days of the week) so everything should be fine.

Thanks for your help.
