Re: [fossil-users] Help install fossil as window service
Ingo is right, a Windows service is a special type of executable. Fossil..exe is an ordinary Windows executable. But you cannot have Fossil just idling, waiting for commands. Fossil just does what the command line arguments tell it to do then exits. What are you trying to do? Tony Perovic Compumation, Inc.

What did i do wrong ? You can't register an arbitrary program directly as a Windows service. Every Windows service has to implement at least two functions which are called by the service manager to start and stop the service. Fossil obviously does not implement those functions, so it doesn't respond to the service manager as expected. There are programs available which implement those functions and can then run an arbitrary program. Just do a search for run windows program as a service Ingo ___ fossil-users mailing list fossil-users@lists.fossil-scm.org http://lists.fossil-scm.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fossil-users
Re: [fossil-users] Cloning on IIS
All,
To troubleshoot my cloning problem, I tried running Fossil in CGI mode like
this:
Set CONTENT_LENGTH=65
Set PATH_INFO=/xfer/xfer
Set REMOTE_USER=tperovic
Set REQUEST_MODE=POST
Set SCRIPT_NAME=/Projects/Test/Test.fossil
Set SERVER_NAME=myserver
Set SERVER_PORT=80
Set SERVER_PORT_SECURE=0
Set SERVER_PROTOCOL=HTTP/1.0
Fossil.exe cgi test.cgi
Also tried:
Set GATEWAY_INTERFACE=CGI/1.1
Fossil.exe test.cgi
Getting this error:
Assertion failed: (pFrom)-xRealloc==blobReallocMalloc ||
(pFrom)-xRealloc==blobReallocStatic, file ./bld/blob_.c, line 379
This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way.
Please contact the application's support team for more information.
I set all the environmental variables that I think it needs. Did I miss any?
Probably looking for those 65 bytes of content on stdin, huh?
What do those 65 bytes contain?

Basic Authentication is enabled. Allow REMOTE_USER authentication is enabled in the repository.

If I browse the repository, the browser provides authentication to IIS which, in turn, sets REMOTE_USER=tperovic before invoking Fossil via CGI. The result is auto-login based on Windows integrated authentication. I get Logged on as tperovic on every Fossil web page.

Re: [fossil-users] Fossil on IIS
IIS/CGI sets the following environmental variable:
SERVER_SOFTWARE=Microsoft-IIS/6.0
So you could look for that.
IIS has another bug that prevents Set-Cookie and Redirection within the same
HTTP response. IIS tries to be efficient by executing the redirection without
involving the browser but fails to pass along the cookie so the Login/Logout
pages don't work. I had to script around that too. Now that I've got all that
worked out I'm battling the Active Directory security model. Painful.
Are you sure you want to start modifying Fossil to compensate for IIS
idiosyncrasies (bugs)? Judging by the lack of responses I've gotten, I don't
think there are too many Fossil on IIS/CGI users out there. A Wiki page with
detailed instructions might suffice.

So, basically, my Perl script is taking a non-compliant IIS/CGI PATH_INFO and
making it compliant.
Are their any other distinguishing environment variables that IIS outputs?
Perhaps we can add special code to Fossil to work around the IIS bug.
Or, perhaps we can add a special parameter to the cgi file that starts up
Fossil. In addition to the repository: line, add a new line something like:

This is driving me nuts..
I created a CGI file for my repository on the server:
It seems that Fossil uses the PATH_INFO to construct its reply in CGI mode. I
achieved the correct results by writing a Perl script that strips the
SCRIPT_NAME portion from the PATH_INFO environment variable before invoking
Fossil:
$path = $ENV{PATH_INFO};
$script = $ENV{SCRIPT_NAME};
if ($path =~ m/^$script/) { # PATH_INFO starts with SCRIPT_NAME?
$ENV{PATH_INFO} = substr($path, length($script));
}
All Fossil / CGI requests must be processed through this Perl script. Thus, I
concluded, Fossil/CGI cannot possibly work on Windows/IIS without scripting.
Fossil assumes that PATH_INFO and SCRIPT_NAME are set up as described in
RFC3875. If what you say is correct, ISS appears not to follow RFC3875 and
hence does not really support CGI, but rather something that is merely CGI-like.
Q: Is this correct? Am I missing something?
In fact, given the above analysis, it shouldn't work in Linux either, yet, (I
assume) it does.
The main Fossil website (http://www.fossil-scm.org/) is just an instance of
Fossil running on a Linux box as CGI. See
http://www.fossil-scm.org/fossil/doc/trunk/www/selfhost.wiki for additional
information, including the scripts used to enable CGI on the various Fossil
mirrors.
Q: Can somebody please explain what is or isn't happening in Linux that is or
isn't happening in Windows/IIS?
Reminds me of a haiku I read years ago:
Yesterday it worked.
Today it is not working.
Windows is like that.

So, clicking the Login button on the Login page returns this: Status: 302 Moved Temporarily Set-Cookie: fossil_login_3213c06d=anon%2F2455644... Path=/Fossil/Fossil.pl; expires=Wed, 23 Mar 2011 23:51:39 GMT; Version=1 Location: /Fossil/Fossil.pl/index Cache-control: no-cache, no-store Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8 Content-Length: 58 html pRedirect to /Fossil/Fossil.pl/index/p /html The browser never gets it. Instead, IIS redirects automatically but forgets to pass the cookie. Wouldn't this suffice? Status: 302 Moved Temporarily Set-Cookie: fossil_login_3213c06d=anon%2F2455644...; Path=/Fossil/Fossil.pl; expires=Wed, 23 Mar 2011 23:51:39 GMT; Version=1 Location: /Fossil/Fossil.pl/index All it needs to do is create the login cookie and redirect to the home page. In fact, that's probably how I'll script it assuming that IIS doesn't try to outsmart itself again. Tony Perovic Compumation, Inc.

Re: [fossil-users] Fossil on IIS
I'm having trouble with the Login page on IIS/CGI I wrote a Perl script that accepts Fossil requests like this: http://myserver/cgi-bin/Fossil.pl?repository=\Projects\...\Test.fossil It generates a CGI script (Fossil.cgi): #! Fossil repository: \Projects\...\Test.fossil then invokes Fossil and logs the output: $output = `Fossil.exe Fossil.cgi` print $output log $output It also creates a cookie that used for subsequent page requests: Set-Cookie: repository=\Projects\...\Test.fossil Now the Login page URL looks like this: http://myserver/cgi-bin/Fossil.pl/login Using Fill out captcha and clicking the Login button generates the following HTTP request: POST /cgi-bin/Fossil.pl/login HTTP/1.1 Host: vserver1 Connection: keep-alive Referer: http://myserver/cgi-bin/Fossil.pl/login Content-Length: 45 Cache-Control: max-age=0 Origin: http://myserver Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded Accept: application/xml,application/xhtml+xml,text/html;q=0.9,text/plain;q=0.8,image/png,*/*;q=0.5 Accept-Encoding: gzip,deflate,sdch Accept-Language: en-US,en;q=0.8 Accept-Charset: ISO-8859-1,utf-8;q=0.7,*;q=0.3 Cookie: repository=\Projects\Test\Test.fossil u=anonymousp=c22b0422in=Logincs=1403348019 Fossil reponds with: Status: 302 Moved Temporarily Set-Cookie: fossil_login_b213c069=anon%2F2455639.13208575%2F3590e822388f03d7bd4897801ec42b0a7d5e88b6; Path=/cgi-bin/Fossil.pl; expires=Fri, 18 Mar 2011 21:10:12 GMT; Version=1 Location: /cgi-bin/Fossil.pl/index Cache-control: no-cache, no-store Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8 Content-Length: 59 html pRedirect to /cgi-bin/Fossil.pl/index/p /html Which should display the Home page logged in as Anonymous but, instead, the browser receives: HTTP/1.1 200 OK Cache-Control: no-cache, no-store Content-Length: 1305 Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8 Server: Microsoft-IIS/6.0 Date: Fri, 18 Mar 2011 15:10:12 GMT !DOCTYPE htmlhtml head titleUnnamed Fossil Project: Home/title link rel=alternate type=application/rss+xml title=RSS Feed href=/cgi-bin/Fossil.pl/timeline.rss / link rel=stylesheet href=/cgi-bin/Fossil.pl/style.css?default type=text/css media=screen / /head body div class=header div class=logo img src=/cgi-bin/Fossil.pl/logo alt=logo / /div div class=titlesmallUnnamed Fossil Project/smallbr /Home/div div class=statusNot logged in/div /div div class=mainmenua href='/cgi-bin/Fossil.pl/home'Home/a a href='/cgi-bin/Fossil.pl/timeline'Timeline/a a href='/cgi-bin/Fossil.pl/brlist'Branches/a a href='/cgi-bin/Fossil.pl/taglist'Tags/a a href='/cgi-bin/Fossil.pl/reportlist'Tickets/a a href='/cgi-bin/Fossil.pl/wiki'Wiki/a a href='/cgi-bin/Fossil.pl/login'Login/a /div div class=content pThis is a stub home-page for the project.

Re: [fossil-users] Basic question: how to create fossil web service using bash cgi
Looking at the source code, it looks like Fossil goes into CGI mode when it sees that the GATEWAY_INTERFACE is defined or the cgi command line parameter is specified. Try clearing GATEWAY_INTERFACE.

Re: [fossil-users] Fossil on IIS
This is what I've got: - All our project files area stored on a shared file server (Windows Server 2003) - We have multiple clients - Clients have one or more projects - Clients could have multiple locations - Projects could have one or more subprojects - Each client/location/project/subproject has a folder - Each project or subproject will have a Fossil repository on the server - Each repository will be kept in the appropriate project or subproject folder Here is an example directory structure on the file server: \Projects \Client1 (This client has multiple locations) \Location1 \Project1 (This project has subprojects) \Subproject1 \Subproject2 \Subproject3 \Project2 (This project has no subprojects) \Project3 (This project has no subprojects) ... \Location2 ... \Location3 ... \Client2 (This client has only one location) \Project1 \Project2 \Project3 ... \Client3 ... Clearly, all the Fossil repositories will not be stored in the same folder. I'm testing a Perl script that'll sort it all out and invoke Fossil using CGI as required. Almost there. One last hurdle: The script generates a Fossil.cgi file dynamically, as needed, per repository, then invokes Fossil. The initial CGI file looks like this: #!\Program Files\Fossil\Fossil repository: \Projects\Client\Location\Project\repository.fossil Subsequently, the browser comes back asking for resources referenced in the resulting HTML: img src=/cgi-bin/Fossil.pl/logo alt=logo / It's obviously asking for the logo within the repository it just accessed. Q: How should the CGI script invoke Fossil to request these internal resources? I tried: #!\Program Files\Fossil\Fossil repository: \Projects\Client\Location\Project\repository.fossil/logo without success. Please advise.

Anybody get Fossil working as a CGI script on Microsoft Server 2003 / IIS?
