Ant SCP fails with J9 JVM but it works with Sun JVM

[Sachin Kumar Saxena]

Hi All, 

I am unable to find a solution for the problem i am facing with IBM j9.

In my ant script i am using SCP task to copy my build artefacts(.ear) to scp server.

When i am using Oracle jdks everything is working fine and i am able to copy my files to remote server.

Problem starts when ant is running using JVM j9 jvm (1.5).

I am getting Net_Bind exception when scp task is executed. 

I have tried following permutations;

Jenkins running on Oracle jdk 1.5 and Ant using Oracle jdk -- build is successful.

Jenkins running on Oracle jdk 1.5 and Ant using J9 -- Build failed with netbind exception

Jenkins running on J9 and Ant using J9 -- Build failed with netbind exception

Please help if any one have any idea what could be done to resolve this issue.

Hi All,

Can someone please help here or point out the mistake if any i have done with my configuration.

I am using Ant 1.7 and my jenkins is installed on Windows 2008 server.

It sounds to me that you might be better off asking on the Ant mailing
list as it sounds like its the scp Ant task that is causing you
issues?

However I'd also check that the version of J9 you are using is
certified to work with Windows 2008 Server as perhaps there is some
security/access controls tripping it up.

Hi Richard,

We have another Jenkins running with same ANT(1.7) and J9(1.5) on Windows XP and things are working properly there.

So it reduces the changes of ANT not working properly with J9.

Thanks for your suggestion to verify the J9 version on Windows 2008 server. 

But our requirement is to use J9 1.5 as the EAR will be deployed on WAS 6.1 and dev team wants us to use the same JRE to build the project which is bundled with WAS6.1 i.e. J9 v1.5.

Is there a way around to make this thing working. 

Thanks a lot for your help.

Regards,

Sachin K.

Can you manually run a build with Ant + J9 on this slave ? If not this is definitively an Ant / J9 issue on this OS

Hi Nicolas,

Thanks!!

Running build manually also failing of Window2008 server and works on XP. 
So it looks like an issue with ANT and J9 on Windows 2008 server. 

But as we need to have the same configuration of Ant and Java for our build, Can anyone suggest some workaround for this issue?

Sachin K.

I note you asked Ant mailing list, probably best place to get a workaround.

Some Ant tasks let you set path to JVM to use, so you can use Hotspot to run Ant and J9 to compile and run tests. 

<javac compiler="extJavac" executable="${j9}" ... 

I assume this is where it makes much sense for your Dev team to ensure they match the target environment.
