Hi there,
To test a simple conversion, I created an empty VSS database, and
tried to convert. However, it doesn't get passed the first step in
the conversion:
$ /usr/local/bin/vss2svn.pl --ssphys=/usr/local/bin/ssphys --
vssdir=dummy --timing --verbose
Connecting to database ./_vss2svn/vss_data.db
Use of uninitialized value in concatenation (.) or string at /usr/
local/bin/vss2svn.pl line 1156.

BEGINNING CONVERSION...

/usr/local/bin/ssphys: unrecognized file
Try `/usr/local/bin/ssphys --help` for more information
ERROR -- FAILED with non-zero exit status 255 (cmd: "/usr/local/bin/
ssphys" info -ewindows-1252 "dummy/data/names.dat")
at /usr/local/bin/vss2svn.pl line 1131
File does not exist: at /usr/local/bin/vss2svn.pl line 118
A couple of note: the "Use of uninitialized value in concatenation
(.) or string at /usr/local/bin/vss2svn.pl line 1156." is caused by
the version number of ssphys not being formatted as expected (it was
compiled from source), so it doesn't matter. The error "File does not
exist: at /usr/local/bin/vss2svn.pl line 118" happens because the
invocation of ssphys has failed. From what I can see in the source
code, ssphys fails checking what kind of file names.dat is. The start
of names.dat is as follows:
$ od -N 50 -a -H dummy/data/names.dat
0000000 P nul nul nul H N a2 J nul nul nul nul nul nul nul nul
50000000 484ea24a 00000000
00000000
0000020 nul nul nul nul nul nul nul nul db cd soh nul nul nul nul nul
00000000 00000000 dbcd0100
00000000
0000040 nul nul nul nul nul nul nul nul nul nul nul nul nul nul nul nul
00000000 00000000 00000000
00000000
*
0000060
So the names.dat does have the "HN" magic in it (not sure if it's in
the right spot or not). I'm stuck now, what else can I do?
Many thanks,
Marcel
