Action: I tried to configure and run a simple c++ azure pipeline on a self-hosted windows computer. I'm pretty new to all this. I ran the script below.
Expected: to see build task, display task and clean task. to see hello word.
Result: Error, script can't find my build agent.
##[warning]An image label with the label Weltgeist does not exist.
,##[error]The remote provider was unable to process the request.
Pool: Azure Pipelines
Image: Weltgeist
Started: Today at 10:16 p.m.
Duration: 14m 23s
Info & Test:
My self-hosted agent name is Weltgeist and it's part of the default agent pools.it's a windows computer, with all g++, mingw and other related tools on it.
I tried my build task locally with no problem.
I tried my build task using azure 'ubuntu-latest' agent with no problem.
I created the self-hosted agent following these specification. I'm the owner of the azure repo. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/devops/pipelines/agents/v2-windows?view=azure-devops
How do I configure correctly the pool ymal parameter for self-hosted agent ? Do i have addition steps to do server side? or on azure repo configs? Any other idea of what went wrong?
# Starter pipeline
# Start with a minimal pipeline that you can customize to build and deploy your code.
# Add steps that build, run tests, deploy, and more:
# https://aka.ms/yaml
trigger:
- master
pool:
vmImage: 'Weltgeist' #Testing with self-hosted agent
steps:
- script: |
mkdir ./build
g++ -g ./src/hello-world.cpp -o ./build/hello-world.exe
displayName: 'Run a build script'
- script: |
./build/hello-world.exe
displayName: 'Run Display task'
- script: |
rm -r build
displayName: 'Clean task'
(UPDATE) Solution:
Thx, after updating it as stated in a answer below and reading a bit more pool ymal definition it works. Note, I modified a couple of other lines to make it work on my environment.
trigger:
- master
pool:
name: Default
demands:
- agent.name -equals Weltgeist
steps:
- script: |
mkdir build
g++ -o ./build/hello-world.exe ./src/hello-world.cpp
displayName: 'Run a build script'
- script: |
cd build
hello-world.exe
cd ..
displayName: 'Run Display task'
- script: |
rm -r build
displayName: 'Clean task'
