Re: ClearCase and ReviewBoard setup : Any pointer, best practice or setup instruction ?
Thanks you.
Yes I did fix it for the first error.
For the permission I did follow the technote before and also others
setting. As I was using the apache user (added to the correct group) I have
to chmod everything, which I did. I finally found that I was missing one
chmod in one folder.
It's now working.
Creating review with base CC is working fine, now I'll check with UCM.
Thanks again.

Re: ClearCase and ReviewBoard setup : Any pointer, best practice or setup instruction ?
Hi Laurent,
Yeah, it's been a while since the community has made improvements to the
ClearCase implementation. We've considered completely redoing it, but
haven't been clear on how many people are still using it, and I'm not sure
how those people who still are are using it in production.
I know the first issue is just legacy code that needs to be fixed to no
longer check an ancient variable, and we'll get that check fixed in the
next version (it's easy to just remove manually for now, if you want to dig
into that clearcase.py file in your installed copy of RBTools).
The latter two exceptions are definitely the same root cause of the
permissions issue. IBM has this Technote on the situation:
https://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21230157
Given that, I think either you want to just make Apache a user in your
group, or just have the permissions be 775 instead of 770. It's going to be
dependent on your organization's needs, I think.
The error could use some serious improving, and I'll look at that.

Re: ClearCase and Reviewboard setup Continues...
I've only deployed RB with Clearcase for local testing, but the base path should just point to the server's view. It doesn't matter locally that that drive may or may not exist. Clearcase doesn't really fit into the model of the other supported scms where you can query it to find out the 'remote' repository. We could add an option to post- review to accept this path on the command line so it doesn't need to be hard-coded. I don't know if there's any way it could actually be stored as metadata in your view, like we do with other scms, though. Another thought -- maybe you could fill in the 'mirror path' in your configuration with a bogus name that's more user-friendly than 'y:/', like 'cc_vob_foo' and then specify that with post-review instead of 'y:/'. Dan On Jul 23, 1:47 am, Karthik karthikeyan1...@gmail.com wrote: Hi Dan, We have given the view drive (Y:/) as a base path directory in the post-review script and in the review board admin location. Does it hold good if we are going to run the common centralized review board server which will be used by group of people? What is the base path we can give in that situation? Because the drive letter is just the mapping or mounting of the view for a single user. Please let me know if you have any thoughts on this.

Re: ClearCase and Reviewboard setup Continues...
Hi Dan, We have given the view drive (Y:/) as a base path directory in the post-review script and in the review board admin location. Does it hold good if we are going to run the common centralized review board server which will be used by group of people? What is the base path we can give in that situation? Because the drive letter is just the mapping or mounting of the view for a single user. Please let me know if you have any thoughts on this. Thanks, Karthik On Jul 23, 10:43 am, Karthik karthikeyan1...@gmail.com wrote: ( I was not able to post it in the same thread, it always error encountered).

Re: ClearCase and Reviewboard setup.
Hi Dan,
I have done the changes to make it work with Clearcase. I have
followed all the steps you have mentioned. I am using dynamic
clearcase view only. When I run the post-review script, it hangs when
it tries to post the diff content. But I can see the diff content if I
use output-diff option for post-review. Following are the output taken
from post-review script.

Here's what you need to do to get up and running. For the purpose of
this test, I used a dynamic view and was running the server on the
same machine as I had the view and did a review of checked out files.
1) Add reviewboard.scmtools.clearcase.ClearCaseTool in the admin
interface (Home Scmtools Tools), if using ReviewBoard 1.0. This
step is not necessary if you're running svn revision = r2041.
2) Add aClearCaserepository via the admin interface, and specify a
path to your view (I used the top of the view, not the vob).
3) Apply the patch fromhttp://reviews.review-board.org/r/906/toyour
post-review script.
4) Edit post-review ClearCaseClient class. Change cc_rootpath to be
identical to what you typed into the admin interface, change viewtype
to 'dynamic' (if you're trying this with a dynamic view, of course)
4) Check out a file in the view and make a change
4) Run post-review in your view and pass a list of the files that
you've checked out after the options. Alternatively if you're lazy
like me, you can do something like (on windows, with cygwin, msys,
etc, in your vob directory):
cleartool lsco -cview -me -recurse -short | sed s//\//g | xargs
python post-review --server=http://example.com/

Re: ClearCase and Reviewboard setup.
Well, it looks like you are having the same problem as in another
thread, however both have Clearcase in common. Everything is working
okay in the post-review half of things, so my guess is something is
going wrong trying to access the base files from Clearcase on the
server side.
It looks like you are running Windows, but your basedir and
repository_path are '/sw0' which looks unix-like. Are you sure you
have the repository path configured correctly on the server? If it's a
dynamic view, it ought to just be a root drive letter like X:/.

Re: ClearCase and Reviewboard setup.
I went through a fresh installation of reviewboard with Clearcase today and recorded the steps. Here's what you need to do to get up and running.

Re: ClearCase and Reviewboard setup.
Hi Dan, We did have to modify one line of code in post-review to get it to run Could you check if those changes are not similar to mine (http://reviews.review-board.org/r/906/)? I know I had difficulties submitting a diff for a clearcase repo and those changes fixed it. I think that we should also make a hard-coded part configurable.

Re: ClearCase and Reviewboard setup.
Yes, split_lines=True is what I needed to add to get it to work. I'm less sure about the other changes. They seem like they might be a problem with your version of python on Windows. I'll add comments to the review.
