I have done a git pull and built boost from cmake. I have two problems

1) there were 2768 (or similar) tests which was just too much, so I have disabled static/debug and just left release/shared options. When running

Ctest -E Experimental

I'm getting <extract from output>

Start processing tests

So the DartConfiguration is not being picked up.

I edited my CTestConfig in the root folder to look like this

set(CTEST_PROJECT_NAME "Boost")
set(CTEST_NIGHTLY_START_TIME "03:00:00 EST")

set(CTEST_DROP_METHOD "http")
set(CTEST_DROP_SITE "my.cdash.org")
set(CTEST_DROP_LOCATION "/CDashPublic/submit.php?project=Boost")
set(CTEST_DROP_SITE_CDASH TRUE)

i.e. I edited the drop location tags to point to the new dashboard.

Can anyone advise on the correct settings to ensure Dart/CTest is getting the correct settings. To me Dart is dead and Ctest lives, so something is looking in the wrong place for test settings (DartConfiguration.tcl). It's been a while since I did much dashboard work so I've forgotten the correct settings.

If I get it working, then I'm setting my machine to do a nightly build.

Windows XP, 32 bit. Visual studio 2008.
