Bug #: 51327 Summary: fop.bat, fop.cmd, ... should have svn:executable property in SVN ? Product: Fop Version: 1.0 Platform: PC Status: NEW Severity: minor Priority: P2 Component: general AssignedTo: fop-dev@xmlgraphics.apache.org ReportedBy: wme...@newsguy.com Classification: Unclassified After installing fop-1.0 (to upgrade from fop-0.95) and then running Visual C nmake which then invokes fop.bat, I got the following message: c:\...\fop-1.0\fop.bat ... ... NMAKE : fatal error U1045: spawn failed : No error Windows 7; MSVC 9 (2008); fop-1.0 installed from fop-1.0-bin.zip using: UnZip 6.00 of 20 April 2009, by Cygwin. Original by Info-ZIP. A bit of poking around on the web suggested a permissions problem. I don't really understand how to use Windows7 tools to view/change file permissions so I just used cygwin 'ls' and found that fop.bat wasn't marked as executable (according to cygwin 'ls'). So: I tried a different unzip (Winzip) to install fop-1.0 again (after removing the first install) and found that that fop.bat was then magically marked as executable; invoking fop.bat via nmake worked AOK. I don't understand all that goes on behind the scenes but I'm guessing that setting the svn:executable property for the Windows .bat & .cmd files in the SVN repository might be the right way to go. ================ Contents of /xmlgraphics/fop/trunk/fop.bat Revision 697152 - (show annotations) (download) Fri Sep 19 17:01:03 2008 UTC (2 years, 8 months ago) by adelmelle File MIME type: text/plain File size: 3915 byte(s) ...
