CVSNT 2.5.01.1882.msi

2005-02-28 Thread JScoobyCed
Hi all,
	I just installed the latest CVSNT MSI Installer I have found.
I am installing on Windows XP Pro + SP2
At the end of the installation, I got an error message telling that some 
part of the installation failed. This happens after the services are 
added and started, then register component, ... then this error popup.
The last screen of the installer also tells there was error during 
installation and I shuld re-run the installer.
But the server is installed, and after I reboot, I can login to the 
server, start/stop services without error, everything looks good.
It's just I don't like such error message...
Anybody got an idea ?
I have tried cvsnt 2.0.62 as well with same error.
Should I try an older release ?
What is the latest stable release ?

Thanks a lot.

 Most systems honor $TZ.
 
darn, I was hoping I could have everything else work with the local $TZ and
cvs would use something like $CVS_TZ and only fallback to $TZ if $CVS_TZ was
not set.

Thanks.

How to change the 'x' bit of a file in CVS?

2005-02-28 Thread JF Larvoire
Help!

We added a file in our CVS system by mistake with the wrong 'x' flag value.
I tried checking in an update with the correct 'x' bit, but this does not 
work.
I tried deleting and adding back in the file, but this does not work either.
The Faq says it is preserved.
Isn't there any way to change it then?

Assumption, your system uses the same signals as my linux box.

`man 7 signal`

   Signal Value Action   Comment
  
-
   SIGKILL   9   AEF Kill signal
   The letters in the  Action  column  have  the  following
   meanings:

   A  Default action is to terminate the process.
   E  Signal cannot be caught.
   F  Signal cannot be ignored.

Usually this means someone explicitly called `kill -9 your_process`, I don't
know of the kernel ever using this signal without it being sent with a kill
command. In most systems only you and root can do that to your process, so
start with those people. :)
Find out who and why.

If you have access to the repository, change the file attribute there to
the ,v file.

Notice that an cvs up in your sandbox will not set the attribute
correctly; for this, you have to remove the file and do a cvs up

HTH,

RE: Info-cvs Digest, Vol 27, Issue 61

2005-02-28 Thread Matthew Herrmann
Hi Todd,

In Windows scripting, you could make a cvs.bat which set the timezone
specifically for that application, without altering the environment of other
programs or batch scripts:

setlocal
set TZ=myUTCzone
cvs %*
endlocal

What you were suggesting with the CVS_TZ is something you could include in
this wrapper script, if necessary. You could set TZ to CVS_TZ if it existed
for the scope of the cvs application only.

I presume you're running on Linux/Unix, so I'm not sure what the equivalent
operations would be in that environment.

HTH,

Matthew Herrmann

Long version numbers | Tedious to keep track

2005-02-28 Thread Swaroop George
Hi,
I am experiencing a peculiar problem. Ours is a huge project and had
multiple enhancement versions going in since live. Inaddition, we have
monthly maintenance release as well as patch releases on an as needed
basis. All this led us creating multiple branches to the code base.
And the version numbers have now become as long as 1.2.2.1.2.1.2.1 and
quite cumbersome to handle.

- Is there anyway of alternate versioning and making it much more
simple, but still maintaining the history to an extent.
- How about creating a fresh root after archiving the current code to a backup?

Bright ideas are welcome..

Thanks in advance
Swaroop
