hi, i checked the process tree during hang and saw that httpd starts cvs, which in turn starts plink through a new shell. All these processes does not terminate during the hang. to see if i can try it manually, i invoked cvs directly with the same command line and it finished in a second. It produces an out put as below:
=================================================================== Checking out CVSROOT/modules RCS: /cvs/CVSROOT/modules,v VERS: 1.5 *************** ... more stuff ... there is no HOME user specific envt variable set for Apache user, but there is a system wide variable called HOME (which is created for a different purpose though). I use windows. Thanks CMOS On Feb 25, 10:52 am, Christian Hammond <chip...@chipx86.com> wrote: > We're checking to make sure it's a valid repository.
