These new directories are: ./protocols where the client/server protocol dlls live. They have also been renamed by removing '_protocol' from their names. ./triggers Where the trigger dlls now live. These dll files have similarly been renamed by removing the _trigger part of the name ./sql Here is where the audit function sql files are dropped off. These are used when creating the audit databases. They might have always lived here, though. ./xdiff Contains a few dlls apparently used for the diff function in certain cases. There is no longer any default_trigger.dll in use by CVSNT so it is quite normal that it has disappeared. Now, when moving from one version of CVSNT it is very important to use the correct installer. You have two options: 1) Download the installer from March Hare if you already before used that to install the previous version. 2) Download my InnoSetup version of the CVSNT installer if that is what you used before. Don't ever mix the two! If you want to switch between the installer types you have to first uninstall the CVSNT you have from ControlPanel/AddRemovePrograms. After this you can use either one of teh installers. Notice that uninstalling CVSNT is non-destructive to your repository configuration and data. The uninstall never touches user data so it is quite safe. I have made provisions for deleting the old files when upgrading to a version that has the new folder structure, but I don't know if Tony's installer does that.
