Hi, fossilers,

i thought i'd share my most recent moment of idiodicy with you...

i suddenly kept getting the following errors from fossil:

(f is an alias for "fossil")

stephan@ludo:~/cvs/fossil/cson$ f status
Status: 200 OK
Cache-control: no-cache, no-store
Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8
Content-Length: 48

<p class="generalError">no such file: status</p>

WTF?

stephan@ludo:~/cvs/fossil/cson$ f help
Status: 200 OK
Cache-control: no-cache, no-store
Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8
Content-Length: 46

:-?

The problem turned out to be... i'm developing a CGI framework and to
facilitate testing i've defined a few CGI-defined environment variables into
my shell session. Fossil saw those and assumed he was in CGI mode, but then
didn't have enough info to do anything.

The lesson being, "don't tell fossil that your interactive shell is a CGI
environment."
