Hi everyone, I am trying to run the apache scripts available at: http://cvs.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/CVSROOT/ as you may guess/know, these scripts are linked with commitinfo, loginfo, etc. -- I tried to run this these on our system. The server is a Sun Solaris running cvs 1.11.1p1. The server runs perl, version 5.005_03 built for sun4-solaris. The client is a Linux Redhat 7.2 running cvs 1.11.1p1. Unfortunately scripts don't work properly. The scripts are running fine, but i believe one of the function does not do what it is intended to do. Here is a snippet from that function sub change_summary { local($out, @filenames) = @_; local(@revline); local($file, $rev, $rcsfile, $line); while (@filenames) { [...] >> open(RCS, "-|") || exec 'cvs', '-Qn', 'status', $file; << while (<RCS>) { if (/^[ \t]*Repository revision/) { chomp; @revline = split(' ', $_); $rev = $revline[2]; $rcsfile = $revline[3]; $rcsfile =~ s,^$CVSROOT/,,; $rcsfile =~ s/,v$//; } } close(RCS); [...] } The line marked (open(RCS, ......)) executes cvs -Qn status $file on the server. But CVS does not return any information when you try to execute this because it complains that it doesn't know about any CVS/Entries file. Because cvs status works only on a checked out copy. Since there is no such thing on the server, how can we expect this to work?? I believe there are some other problem associated with this scripts. It sends 2 files as an email. One has just the time/dat info, the other has a listing of the changed/renamed/added etc file with no summary info (no summary info because CVS status call does not work) -- What I have written above is my understanding of what is going on. If you have worked with these apache scripts, can you help me to make them work ? Any help is greatly appreciated. -arcin _______________________________________________ Info-cvs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs
