FAQ

How do I generate a wrapper from my Gradle project?

The Gradle wrapper allows the build agent to download and configure the exact Gradle environment that is checked into the repository without having any software configuration on the build agent itself other than the JVM.

  1. Create the Gradle wrapper by issuing the following command from the root project directory where your build.gradle resides:

    jamal@fabrikam> gradle wrapper

  2. Upload your Gradle wrapper to your remote repository.

    There is a binary artifact that is generated by the gradle wrapper ( located at gradle/wrapper/gradle-wrapper.jar ). This binary file is small and doesn't require updating. If you need to change the Gradle configuration run on the build agent, you update the gradle-wrapper.properties.

    The repository should look something like this:

|-- gradle/
    `-- wrapper/
        `-- gradle-wrapper.jar
        `-- gradle-wrapper.properties
|-- src/
|-- .gitignore
|-- build.gradle
|-- gradlew
|-- gradlew.bat

How do I fix timeouts when downloading dependencies?

To fix errors such as Read timed out when downloading dependencies, users of Gradle 4.3+ can change the timeout by adding to Options -Dhttp.socketTimeout=60000 -Dhttp.connectionTimeout=60000. This increases the timeout from 10 seconds to 1 minute.

Do I need an agent?

You need at least one agent to run your build or release.

I'm having problems. How can I troubleshoot them?

See Troubleshoot Build and Release.

I can't select a default agent pool and I can't queue my build or release. How do I fix this?

See Agent pools.

My NuGet push task is failing with the following error: "Error: unable to get local issuer certificate". How can I fix this?

This can be fixed by adding a trusted root certificate. You can either add the NODE_EXTRA_CA_CERTS=file environment variable to your build agent, or you can add the NODE.EXTRA.CA.CERTS=file task variable in your pipeline. See Node.js documentation for more details about this variable. See Set variables in a pipeline for instructions on setting a variable in your pipeline.

I use TFS on-premises and I don't see some of these features. Why not?

Some of these features are available only on Azure Pipelines and not yet available on-premises. Some features are available on-premises if you have upgraded to the latest version of TFS.
