Perforce builds fail due to special character in the client view
Symptoms
All Perforce builds end with the following error:
java.util.NoSuchElementException
at java.util.StringTokenizer.nextToken(Unknown Source)
at com.tek42.perforce.parse.AbstractPerforceTemplate.parseList(AbstractPerforceTemplate.java:62)
at com.tek42.perforce.parse.Workspaces.getWorkspaceList(Workspaces.java:39)
Cause
Issue was due to a carraige character in the client view. As a result, Bamboo was unable to parse the output of p4 clients command. For example:
Client sr:VISTA-SANDEEP:LabOperations:rc_2.0.0 2011/04/19 root C:R&DPerforcep4dev.symyx.com_1666sr_SandeepLOI
elease
c_2.0.0 'Autogenerated clientspec. '
Client sr:VISTA-SANDEEP:NotebookStoryTests:rc_6.6.0 2010/10/07 root C:ProjectNotebook 'Autogenerated clientspec. '
Client sr_Sandeep 2011/02/21 root C:/R&D/Perforce/p4dev.symyx.com_1666/sr_Sandeep 'Created by sr. '
Resolution
We've made the parsing to be more defensive against special characters, but if you do encounter this error we recommend changing the client view to omit the carriage return character.
