Hello CVS gurus, I am having to problems getting CVS to work on my Windows 2000 box. It mainly has to do with CVSWEB. Once I import a module and set it up in CVSWEB, if I click on the version number next to a file, I get the following error message in my browser:
----------- Error Error: Unexpected output from cvs co: cvs [checkout aborted]: C:/cvsroot/saweb/CVSROOT: No such file or directory Check whether the directory C:/cvsroot/saweb/CVSROOT exists and the script has write-access to the CVSROOT/history file if it exists. The script needs to place lock files in the directory the file is in as well. cvs -dC:/cvsroot/saweb co -p -r1.1 "communication/auxiliary.asp" ----------- So it is wanting a CVSROOT directory in this module's repository directory? But when I look at other people's cvswebs, I do not see a CVSROOT directory in each repository. Wouldn't cvs.exe make such a directory if it was needed? Why is CVSWEB requesting this directory? If I do copy my C:\cvsroot\cvsroot directory into c:\cvsroot\saweb, I am able to click the version and properly get the contents of the file, but when I click on the "(download)" link when viewing the CVS log for any file in cvsweb, I now get this error: --------- Error Error: : no such file or directory in your modules file ($module: !== #$module: !== Three$module: !== #$module: !== key$module: !== #$module: !== key$module: !== #$module: !== key$module: !== #$module: !== key$module: !== #$module: !== Where$module: !== #$module: !== -i$module: !== #$module: !== -o$module: !== #$module: !== -e$module: !== #$module: !== -t$module: !== #$module: !== -u$module: !== #$module: !== -d$module: !== #$module: !== -l$module: !== #$module: !== -l$module: !== #$module: !== NOTE:$module: !== #$module: !== release$module: !== #$module: !== release$module: !== #$module: !== And$module: !== #$module: !== And$module: !== #$module: !== The$module: !== #$module: !== everything$module: !== #$module: !== everything$module: !== #$module: !== You$module: !== #$module: !== character$module: !== #$module: !== can$module: !== #$module: !== spread) ---------- Anyone know what I am doing wrong? What is this all about me needing a CVSROOT directory in each repository, rather than just one in the root repository directory? I don't see this problem with any sample CVSWEB sites. Have I set this up wrong? Thanks for your help!
