how to restart teamcity server - teamcity

I am a beginner to teamcity. Our Teamcity 9 server stopped working after I installed Gradle. I doubt that it was problem with port or something like that. I removed Gradle but Teamcity didn't work. So I tried to restart Teamcity server. We have two teamcity agents. I stopped agents with:
sudo ./runAll.sh stop
and I stopped the server with sudo ./shutdwon.sh
after that I started server again with ./startup.sh and agents with
sudo ./runAll.sh start
Now when I am writing url address in browser I am getting either connection_timout or connection refused But when I am writing url with explicit IP address like 10.31.24.18:8111 then I am getting
My questions:
1- How can I restart Teamcity and agents so that I am getting same agents and project as before restart in TeamCity UI? Or If I am creating Administrator account now after that I should reconfigure all projects or my projects before restart will be there?
2- Why URL with IP-address is working but URL with domain name server name is not working?

You can restart TeamCity right from the UI: Administration > Diagnostics > Server Restart. You will need to have server admin permissions for that.

using command line
cd /opt/teamcity/bin
(sudo) ./teamcity-server.sh stop
(sudo) ./teamcity-server.sh start

VSTS change agent state from offline to online after installing it

i'm facing a problem with VSTS agent state is offline i installed the agent through cmd under the right pool and downloaded after that but it still offline any help please ?
If the build agent is running as interactive mode, you need to start agent by running run.cmd file:
Open Command line as administrator
Run run.cmd file (under agent folder)
If the build agent is running as service, you can check whether the related service is running in Services.

Jenkins build project "Unable to access to repository"

I am a complete Jenkins noob so if I have missed something completely obvious I apologise in advance!
I am building an intranet web application using Visual Studio 2010 and commit changes using AnkhSVN to a repository stored on a server that is running Visual SVN Server.
Due to budget restrictions this server is also acting as our web server and also running Jenkins. It is connected to our internal network but doesn't have external internet access so I have had to manually install Jenkins plugins and dependencies.
I am trying to build a Jenkins project that would build the web application when it detects a commit but when I enter the repository URL and the user credentials in the source code management window I get the following error message:
Unable to access to repository
However when I enter the url in a browser and enter the same credentials I can access the repository without any errors.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

check if the ip of jenkins server can access the svn ip server....i have the same problem and i found that my ci server can not access the svn server .using ping command
That actually might be okay. For some reason I see similar error message (could be a bug in Jenkins frontend) when edit SCM details for a job in Jenkins, but it does work flawlessly if I actually save and run the job.
Give it a try it might actually work during the build time.

Jenkins doesn't recognize slave being down and thus does not allow for it to reconnect

We have a Jenkins instance running on Ubuntu that has several slaves in different systems. One of them is a Windows 7 host, having jenkins slave instance configured as a service.
We have a problem that when that machine is rebooted, master Jenkins doesn't realize it's gone. It looks to be just fine in the nodes view. Then, when a build is issued that is supposed to use that slave it gets stuck. If that is stopped, the next build fails immediately
Caused by: java.util.concurrent.TimeoutException: Ping started at 1457016721684 hasn't completed by 1457016961684
... 2 more
[EnvInject] - [ERROR] - SEVERE ERROR occurs: channel is already closed
When the slave has started up and it tries to connect back to master, connection is refused, and in the logs there is an error saying connection with that name already exists:
Server didn't accept the handshake: xxx is already connected to this master. Rejecting this connection.
There is issue JENKINS-5055 which claims a fix was committed allowing the same JNLP slave to reconnect without getting rejected, apparently this commit, and according to changelog, it was introduced in version 1.396 (2011/02/02). We are however using version 1.639 and seeing this. Somebody else seems to be seeing it as well. By looking at current codebase, I see where the error is coming from, but don't see the fix done in Jenkins-5055.
Any ideas on resolving this?
Edit: also asked on jenkins user mailing list, but no responses.
We faced the same issue. Used https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/slave-status as workaround
Reinstalling the slave on a Windows Server 2012 R2 machine shows no signs of this behavior, so it seems that either there was a mistake done during installation steps or this is something caused by using a workstation Windows version.
Regardless, here were the steps to get it working, assuming a brand new installation of Windows, with no network connectivity, and master instance using a self-signed certificate:
Install JRE on the machine. If you have 64-bit operating system, install both 32-bit and 64-bit, otherwise go with 32-bit. Download link here
Install .NET 3.5 on the machine. This is needed by the Jenkins service. You can follow the steps outlined by my other answer for this.
Install Jenkins using Windows installer (.zipped) to C:\Jenkins. It can be downloaded from here.
Check your installation is responding by navigating to http://localhost:8080 . In case of trouble, check for logs in the jenkins folder. If there is a port conflict, edit jenkins.xml and change the httpPort to something else.
From the Windows computer, navigate to your master jenkins and configure a new node there.
Start a slave agent using Java Launch Agent in configure -> node screen (you need to be still using your Windows slave computer)
You should see a visible window opening. From there, select File -> Install as a service. (details and screenshots) If you experience an error without proper explanation, confirm .NET 3.5 is properly installed. If you see "WMI.WmiException: AccessDenied", save the jnlp file locally and start it from administrator prompt or otherwise with elevated privileges (details).
From the Administrative tools -> Services, stop and disable the Jenkins service, and stop Jenkins Slave Agent but leave it on Automatic so it will start up when starting up the computer.
This is only relevant if you're using a self-signed or otherwise problematic certificate:
download the previously mentioned Java Launch Agent file (.jnlp file) again and save it to C:\jenkins
open c:\jenkins\jenkins-slave.xml to your editor
change it to refer to your local .jnlp file by changing jnlp url parameter (file:/C:/jenkins/jenkins-slave.jnlp)
add -noCertificateCheck to parameters
replace the -secret parameter with -auth "user:pass", since otherwise automatic url get parameters will be added which will mess finding the .jnlp file
Start the Jenkins Slave Agent service again
For problems with jenkins slave service, check out jenkins-slave.err.log. For Windows Server 2012 R2, you can get the functionality of tail by using Get-Content .\jenkins-slave.err.log -Wait -Tail 10 in Powershell prompt. For older versions of Powershell, leave out -Tail 10.

Restart SonarQube Server remotely

I implemented SonarQube on the server, and I do most of the configurations remotly. Hence whenever a plugin is installed, a restart of SonarQube is required and every time I have to explicitly (manually) restart the SonarQube server.
Is there a way to restart SonarQube remotely?
For example, like jenkins through http://sonar_url/restart.
Since SonarQube 5.4, you can restart it directly from the UI (Administrators should be able to request a server restart from web console) or using the WS /api/system/restart (WS /api/system/restart should trigger a true restart of SQ).
POST api/system/restart
Since 4.3 Restart server.
Available only on development mode (sonar.web.dev=true).
Ruby on Rails extensions are not reloaded
Regards,
Michel
In my SonarQube instance (v5.6), I use the below curl command to restart SonarQube server
curl -u username:password -X POST https://SONAR_INSTANCE/api/system/restart

TeamCity build agent continually "Unable to start upgrade: Connection reset"

My TeamCity agent is contniually trying to download upgrades from the TeamCity server. It always downloads the files, then fails to start the installation, with the error:
WARN - jetbrains.buildServer.AGENT - Unable to start upgrade: Connection reset
My server is running at http://localhost:9912
How do I stop this endless cycle?
Latest version of TeamCity downloaded from JetBrains
I'm guessing you're running the agent as an AD account rather than under the machine account.
Run the agent service under an account with administrative permissions for the upgrade. I don't remember the specifics of what it's trying to write but it won't if it's a standard user.
