Add write access to your bin directory in IIS.  Not sure if it's in rc2, but I think you can use:

 

    <maps>
        <option name="http://localhost" value="."/>
    </maps>

as with slingshot with the latest build.  Get the most recent nightly build at:

 

http://nant.sourceforge.net/builds/

Jeeze, I didn't even see the solution task. That's going to make my life
a lot easier. :-P

I'm playing around with it; what exactly does it do with a web project?
When I execute NAnt with a very basic config (just the solution task), I
get an error with HTTP 403 (forbidden). Shouldn't it just generate the
compiled projects file? I'm not seeing why it should be dealing with
HTTP at all.

Thanks,
Erick

I quit using slingshot quite a while back when solution came to be. It
seems to have stopped working. I've upgraded NAnt & NAntContrib several
times since then. I'm just living off of the binaries in Contrib
because I can't manage to get it built. I can get the build to work,
but when I go to put the binaries in NAnt's bin folder, I get a
not recognized type of error.

That change to my build file didn't do it Jean. I still get the same
error with that. If I could get a build to work, I'd try to debug, but
rc2 doesn't have the NAntContrib source, only binaries.

Thanks,
Eric

eric,
it does look like the syntax is as advertized.
i thought you had other slingshot tasks in your projects. what's
different here?
as i look in the code for SlingshotTask, i see there's some confusion
about how OptionSets are iterated. pls. try something crazy like the
following and see whether it goes:



output="MySolution.build">




http://localhost"
value="."/>




if that's so, it's really wacky but at least you're going.
the code i'm talking about is the following in SlingshotTask.cs. it's
there because i'd found inconsistencies in how returns
options...

///

Converts an to a cref="Hashtable"/>.

private Hashtable OptionSetToHashtable(OptionSet options, string
optionSetName) {

Hashtable convertedOptions = new Hashtable();

if (options != null) {
foreach (object option in options) {
string name;
string value;
if ( option is OptionValue ) {
OptionValue ov = (OptionValue) option;
name = ov.Name;
value = ov.Value;
} else if ( option is OptionElement ) {
OptionElement oe = (OptionElement) option;
name = oe.OptionName;
value = oe.Value;
} else {
throw new BuildException( string.Format( "Invalid Option
type {0} in {1} OptionSet", option.GetType(), optionSetName) );
}
Log.WriteLine( LogPrefix + " -- {0} = {1}", name, value );

// name must be specified
if (name == null) {
string msg = String.Format("Unspecified name for
<{0}> option '{1}'", optionSetName, name);
throw new BuildException(msg);
// value must be specified
} else if (value == null) {
string msg = String.Format("Unspecified value
for <{0}> option '{1}'", optionSetName, name);
throw new BuildException(msg);
} else {
convertedOptions.Add(name, value);
}
}
}

return convertedOptions;
}

}

HTH ! ??

I'm experiencing a problem with slingshot:

D:\projects\procard>nant -f:BuildWebBuild.build
NAnt version 0.8.3 Copyright (C) 2001-2003 Gerry Shaw
http://nant.sourceforge.net
Buildfile: file:///D:/projects/procard/BuildWebBuild.build

[slingshot] Converting ProCard.Centre.Web.sln to MySolution.build using
nant format
[slingshot] -- option = bin
Total time: 0 seconds.
BUILD FAILED
The option 'build.basedir' is required.

My option contains build.basedir as follows:


output="MySolution.build">




"
value="."/>




I'm having the problem no matter which version of the binaries I
download. Anybody have a clue?

Thanks,
Eric
