Hi!
One of our teams are using typemock 6.0.3.0.
They are running their build on Teamcity 6.0.2 with a build agent on a windows 2008 server. The build agent runs with an account that is local admin on the machine.

Their nant build script autodeploys typemock like this:

<!-- Dynamically load TypeMock task. -->
<if test="${common.nunit.in.use-typemock}">
<loadtasks assembly="${common.nunit.in.typemock-dir}TypeMock.NAntBuild.dll" />
<typemockregister company="Company" license="License-key" autodeploy="true"/>
<typemockstart/>
</if>

<exec program="${common.nunit.in.nunit-dir}" resultproperty="common.nunit.nunit-console-output" failonerror="false" >
<arg value="${common.nunit.in.project-path}" />
<arg value='/xml:"${common.nunit.in.project.buildlogs-dir}${common.nunit.in.testlog-filename}"' />
<arg value="${common.nunit.in.optional-arguments}" if="${string::get-length(common.nunit.in.optional-arguments) > 0}" />
</exec>

<if test="${common.nunit.in.use-typemock}">
<typemockstop undeploy="true"/>
</if>


Their build log says:

and then follows all the tests that fails because typemock doesn't work.

The eventlog at the teamcity 6.0 build agent windows 2008 server says:

Does anyone have any idea on what we have missed?

Hi Daniel,

Are you using any profiler other than Isolator (i.e. NCover, dotTrace)?
If so, check our online help at:
http://docs.typemock.com/isolator/Default.aspx##typemock.chm/Documentation/NAntBuild.html
and:

Hi Yonatan!

I'm actually not involved in the project I'm just responsible for the build server, however, as far as I can see in the build file, (I've updated my original post to include the whole typemock block) it's only nunit that is used in the exec part.

My guess is that the cause for these problems is that typemock don't register properly since we get those Global Assembly Cache errors on the server (in the end of my original post) exactly at the same time as registration of typemock happens. I might be wrong on that but that is the best indication I have on what the problem might be.

Hi Daniel,

You may be right, but it seems as the DLLs were actually registered in the GAC, because afterwards, when the tests were run, an exception was thrown from those dlls...

Googling the error (warning) shows that is happens sometimes and it doesn't keep the app from running.

What is more important, is getting those tests to pass :-)
Please do check what i wrote in the previous post - because it looks like a profiler issue.

Hi Yonatan!

I'll try to get that information from the project. From what I can see in their build script there is no other profiler involved but I don't have the complete picture...

However, there is one thing that I've failed to mention. This build runs fine on another server that is about to be decommissioned. The server where it works is a 32bit windows 2008 server with a teamcity 5.1 build agent while the server where I'm trying to get it to work is a 64bit windows 2008 server with a teamcity 6.0.2 agent.
