[cvsnt] Re: commit problem

Thu Oct 6 20:42:40 BST 2005

If I change the line in loginfo to read:

DEFAULT echo "text"

it echoes "text" to the screen during commits. If I change the line to:

DEFAULT (echo "text")

it gives the error "Exec failed: No such file or directory"

Does anyone have any insight?

I did a lot of troubleshooting yesterday and discovered that the loginfo
script seems to be the culprit. The only uncommented line in the script is
the following:

DEFAULT (echo ""; id; echo %{sVv}; date; cat) >> $CVSROOT/CVSROOT/commitlog

When uncommented, commits give the error message and nothing is logged  to
the commitlog file (which does exist). I have also tried using absolute
pathnames for the binaries (/bin/echo, /usr/bin/id, etc) and for the
commitlog file, with no change. If I comment this line out, the error
message stops, but obviously there is still nothing logged to the log file.

FYI, this is running on RedHat 9.

Thanks for your help...

Switch on server tracing in the control panel then run cvs -ttt to trace
what's happening.  You should be able to find out which script is
failing.  It sounds like postcommit or postcommand.
