Easy fix while people think of real answers: map a drive letter to \\server\path

 Hello user group,

 My fossil version is: This is fossil version [6502627a3e] 2011-02-08 12:52:37 
 UTC

 Is there any known restraint regarding unc pathes on windows?

 I tried the following:
 I had a repo on my harddisk drive C, cloned it to a file server using the 
 unc-path \\server\path\subpath\repo.fossil
 This worked perfectly.
 Then I made changes in the local repository and I tried to push these changes 
 into the remote repo on the file server and I get this error message: 
 fossil.exe: server sends error: repository does not exist or
  is in an unreadable directory: /server/path/subpath/repo.fossil

 The error message changed backslashes to slashes and skipped one backslash 
 before the server-name.

 It is possible to start the local server with the remote repo and push the 
 changes using http://127.0.0.1:8080/ but not directly with the file path.

 Anybody has the same experience? Should it be possible to do this or do I 
 have a comprehension problem?

 Thank you for any feedback.
 Regards, Christian

I'm not real clear exactly what a unc-path is, and it is a reasonable guess
that I don't have the hardware/software at hand to test any changes that
might be made to support them.  So I'm going to be looking to the windows
experts on this list to suggest patches for fixing this.

Re: [fossil-users] fossil on windows-file-server with unc-path

2011-02-28 Thread Christian Busch

Hello,

thank you for the hint with the drive letter, I knew this option but I'd 
like to avoid this extra step.


I'm only working on windows machines so I don't know whether this is a 
windows specific problem or how it looks on other os. For the unc-path I 
only can refer to wikipedia: 
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Path_%28computing%29#Uniform_Naming_Convention

But I guess you've already checked this.

Any suggestion more from somebody?

Thanks, Christian
