SilkCentral Execution Server 15.5 Problem

[wagner_alves]

When trying to execute a test in Execution Server 15.5 (Windows 7), I am receiving this error :

What is happening ?

Please check if the starteam.zip is in the plugins folder of the Silk Central installation directory of the ApplicationServer machine.

Do you see any exceptions regarding the StarTeam plugin in the ApplicationServer log?

Thank you for reply Sebastian.

I checked starteam.zip and it is in plugins fold.

I don't see any exceptions regarding the Starteam plugin in the ApplicationServer log.

This problem occurs only in one Execution Server. The others are executing remotes tests.

Hi,

The StarTeam plugin (starteam.zip) should also be available on the execution server host. Can you please check if it is there? The StarTeam plugin should reside inside the application data folder (in the Plugins subfolder) on the execution server host, which is "[ProgramData]\SilkCentral\AgentBase\Plugins" (e.g. "C:\ProgramData\SilkCentral\AgentBase\Plugins").

What maybe can help is to deactivate and activate this specific execution server in Silk Central. This should upload - among other plugins - the StarTeam plugin again to this execution server. Once you deactivated/activated your execution server, please check if the starteam.zip has been uploaded to the execution server again. (When activating the execution server again, it can take some seconds until the plugins are uploaded).

If it is there, try to rerun your test on this execution server.

Regards

Michael

Thanks Michael.

We copied "C:\ProgramData\SilkCentral\AgentBase\Plugins" from another machine and it works !!
