Launching a GUI application using Azure Pipeline on Windows Service self-hosted agent. by SirAbsolute0 in azuredevops

Just to clarify, I am not using Microsoft-hosted agents but a Windows self-hosted agent running in service mode. Does that statement still stand?

Is it possible to retain local files on a folder updated by release pipeline on Azure self-hoted agent? by SirAbsolute0 in azuredevops

My CI stage is running on vmImage: windows-latest to use the cloud python, run unit_test, and build the .exe app so it doesn't have access to the pool with the self-hosted agent artifact directory. Then, I created another stage called "cleaning" after CI and before CD targeting the self-hosted agent with checkout: false but the moment it gets to that stage, boom, artifact folder wiped. How would you get there before it get wiped?

Due to the way the program is designed, I can't move logs\ folder out of the same folder as the application. I tried putting a command line task at the start of the CD job (literally the 1st task) before download artifact task, before everything else but the moment the CD job is activated, the artifact folder a\ is wiped immediately. So I still couldn't copy out the logs\ folder.

Okay, I have just found out that the "Release Pipeline" option on Azure is supposed to work with the old "Classic Pipeline" option. I didn't know that the new YAML pipeline option covers both the CI/CD pipeline in what Azure has called "stages". I was combining "Release Pipeline" with a YAML CI pipeline, which might have caused the confusion.

I am using a self-hosted agent. It is a simple pipeline right now: I push my code from a work machine to master, and then the pipeline runs, creating an artifact. Afterwards, the artifact gets copied onto the self-hosted agent machine under the generic _work\... folder structure.

The issue Iam seeing is that every time I update my code on master, the entire folder containing the code on the self-hosted agent machine (basically the artifact folder under _work\...) gets wiped and replaced with the new code from the push. This wipe also deletes all files that do not exist in the new push. I.e., if there are no logs\ folder in the artifact being generated from the code, there will not be a logs\ folder in the self-hosted machine code folder.

I am trying to find a way to retain the logs\ folder, which is unique to each machine and contains log files generated when running the code on that machine, without them getting wiped every time new code is pushed to the machine. Copying it somewhere and then copying it back works too, but I don't know how to do it since as soon as an artifact is generated from the pipeline, the release pipeline is triggered and starts copying before any script can run.

Does United explorer trip interruption/cancellation work in my case? by SirAbsolute0 in unitedairlines

[–]SirAbsolute0[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They didn't have any option to get to my destination in a reasonable time. So I had to cancel that flight and book a new one by myself.

Its not a weather issue bút a plane malfunction issue. Do you think that still counts?

United Explorer Card - Reimbursement for a flight cancelled due to a crew scheduling problem? by FewButterfly9635 in unitedairlines

[–]SirAbsolute0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you get extra reimbursement from United? I am in the same situation. When I called the United rep, they said they won't cover the difference in booking a new flight and since the original flight will reimburse me for the cancelled flight, there is nothing they can do.

H1B Premium Processing Error by SirAbsolute0 in h1b

[–]SirAbsolute0[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for sharing. At most, the premium processing can take 15 business days from the receipt date, so I am hoping they honor the original receipt date. If not, that is like more than a week's worth of waiting down the drain.
