Parameter Format

All parameters must be specified following the call command for the import executable and are space delimited.

The format for the parameters need to be in the following layout:

<import.exe> /username=<username> /password=<password> etc.

Below is an example of how to call the import application correctly.

Required Parameters

/username: This must match an administrator user that has already been created in the Continua CI environment. This includes the intial install user that is created when you setup Continua CI.

/password: The password that matches the user specified in /username.

Optional Parameters

/fbsprojectfolder: This parameter specifies the path where your final builder server data is saved.

  • By default, the Final Builder Server installer sets the project directory to  "C:\ProgramData\VSoft\FBServer7" and this is the directory that is used if /fbsprojectfolder is not specified. This directory will need to be set if you modified the install path when installing Final Builder Server.
  • No individual file needs to be specified, just the folder itself. 
  • When specifying the folder, do not use quotes.
  • The project folder should contain the files as shown in the folder image below. 

/logpath: While the import is running, a log will be generated that logs which aspects of Final Builder Server imported correctly into Continua CI and will also identify any errors that may have occurred during the import.

  • By default, the log will be created in the /fbsprojectfolder however this can be overridden by setting /logpath. 
  • This parameter only takes the directory of where the log will be generated. 
  • No log file name needs to be specified as this log will automatically generate as "ContinuaProjectImportLog.txt".

/hostname: This parameter sets the name of the computer that is hosting the Continua CI server service.

  • If no /hostname is specified then "localhost" will be used.
  • Do not pass the port number through the /hostname parameter. Instead use the /port parameter.

/port: This parameter sets the port number that will be used to connect to the Continua CI server service.

  • By default, Continua CI's server port is set to 9000.
  • If the /port parameter is no specified then 9000 is passed to the Continua CI service.

/defaultPassword: For security reasons, Continua CI is unable to import passwords from Final Builder Server to Continua CI. This means that a default password needs to be used as a placeholder for all objects being created in Continua CI that require a password.

  • If no /defaultPassword is provided then the default passwords will be set to "Temp123"
  • When specifying the default password, make sure it is a minimum 6 characters, contains at least 1 letter and at least 1 upper and lower case letter.
  • For more information regarding /defaultpassword, please see <INSERT SECTION HERE>
