More of a note for myself for the future but we’ve just moved office this week and it’s become apparent that our TeamCity continuous integration server hasn’t performed a build for the last 5 days (over the weekend). Despite the TeamCity tray notifier reporting that TeamCity was connected & working correctly, upon closer inspection the build agent was in fact disconnected. Looking at the TeamCity build agent administration screens didn’t help either as it’s not immediately obvious what needs to be done to reconnect the build agent.
It turns out that when we moved the server to the new building there were still some teething problems with the network and the build agent didn’t register itself correctly on server startup.
Restarting the build agent service (or rebooting) easily resolved the issue & we’re now back up & running (with only 1 build error thankfully!)
