Hello bju, a quick update: it always evaluates to false! :(
I'm using 3 vars to "debug":
var name = initial value
TEST1 = 1111
TEST2 = 2222
TEST3 = 3333


		&lt;resultsblock&gt;

			&lt;match pattern=&quot;^Last accessed &#40;.*&#41; &#40;AM|PM&#41;&quot;&gt;

				&lt;bom category=&quot;Result&quot; section=&quot;LastAccessDate&quot;&gt;

					&lt;field name=&quot;lastAccessedDate&quot; text=&quot;$1&quot;/&gt;

				&lt;/bom&gt;				

				&lt;setenv group=&quot;&#91;ADAPTOR&#93;&quot; name=&quot;latest_update&quot; value=&quot;$1&quot;/&gt;			

				&lt;setenv name=&quot;Changes&quot; value=&quot;RUN&quot; type=&quot;temp append&quot; condition=&quot;false&#40;$latest_build==$latest_update&#41;&quot;/&gt; 				

				&lt;setenv group=&quot;&#91;ADAPTOR&#93;&quot; name=&quot;TEST1&quot; value=&quot;$latest_build&quot; condition=&quot;false&#40;$latest_build==$latest_update&#41;&quot;/&gt; 

				&lt;setenv group=&quot;&#91;ADAPTOR&#93;&quot; name=&quot;TEST2&quot; value=&quot;$latest_update&quot; condition=&quot;false&#40;$latest_build==$latest_update&#41;&quot;/&gt; 

				&lt;setenv group=&quot;&#91;ADAPTOR&#93;&quot; name=&quot;TEST3&quot; value=&quot;$1&quot; condition=&quot;true&#40;$latest_build==$latest_update&#41;&quot;/&gt; 



			&lt;/match&gt;

		&lt;/resultsblock&gt;

After the adaptor execution I get:

TEST1 = dateA
TEST2 = dateA
TEST3 = 3333

Any idea what's going on?

ps: test1 equals test2 on the environment

Hi,

I don't have your environment so it's hard to determine exactly what is happening. You might try the <setenv> statements without the condition to see what the variables $latest_build, $latest_update, and $1 are expanding to, and that might give a better idea as to why the condition evaluation isn't working as expected.

Hi, the vars values are:


$1 = 1/1/00 11&#58;22

$latest_update = 1/1/00 11&#58;22

$latest_build = 1/1/00 11&#58;22

$TEST1 = 1/1/00 11&#58;22

$TEST2 = 1/1/00 11&#58;22

$TEST3 = 3333

$latest_build = 1/1/00 11&#58;22

$TEST1 = 1/1/00 11&#58;22

$TEST2 = 1/1/00 11&#58;22

$TEST3 = 3333

I've changed all vars before the build to ensure I get the adaptor output. The only var that doesn't change is TEST3 (I left the condition="true($latest_build==$latest_update)" statement)

Thanks!

Hi ep,

Could you try changing in your condition statement the "==" to "eq" like the ones below.


            &lt;setenv name=&quot;Changes&quot; value=&quot;RUN&quot; type=&quot;temp append&quot; condition=&quot;false&#40;$latest_build eq $latest_update&#41;&quot;/&gt;             

            &lt;setenv group=&quot;&#91;ADAPTOR&#93;&quot; name=&quot;TEST1&quot; value=&quot;$latest_build&quot; condition=&quot;false&#40;$latest_build eq $latest_update&#41;&quot;/&gt;

            &lt;setenv group=&quot;&#91;ADAPTOR&#93;&quot; name=&quot;TEST2&quot; value=&quot;$latest_update&quot; condition=&quot;false&#40;$latest_build eq $latest_update&#41;&quot;/&gt;

            &lt;setenv group=&quot;&#91;ADAPTOR&#93;&quot; name=&quot;TEST3&quot; value=&quot;$1&quot; condition=&quot;true&#40;$latest_build eq $latest_update&#41;&quot;/&gt;

Awesome, problem solved!!!

Finally I used:

&lt;setenv name=&quot;Changes&quot; value=&quot;RUN&quot; type=&quot;temp append&quot; condition=&quot;false&#40;$latest_build eq $latest_update&#41;&quot;/&gt;

Thanks a lot!!!

Now I have a strange problem...

The project has been running ok in server A, but in server B it only executes de adaptor. When it pass, I get the "passed" message but no other step is executed. When it fails, the build doesn't dissapear from the job list.

It's exactly the same project/environments/adaptor configuration. Could be a BuildForge configuration issue?

Thanks!

Hi ep,

Could you check if the adaptor link is in 'Debug'mode? In the UI if you go to Projects -> Adaptor Links -> , there is a 'State' attribute that can be set to Active, Inactive, or Debug. The behavior you describe sounds like the Debug state.

I thought the same thing, but the link state is "active". Any global config that could override this setting?

Thanks!

Hi,

Yes, there is a system configuration parameter named 'Link Debug Mode'. In the UI if you go to Administration -> System -> Link Debug Mode, make sure that it is set to 'No'.
