Re: ClearCase and ReviewBoard setup : Any pointer, best practice or setup instruction ?

2019-08-20 Thread Laurent M.
Thanks you.

Yes I did fix it for the first error.
For the permission I did follow the technote before and also others 
setting. As I was using the apache user (added to the correct group) I have 
to chmod everything, which I did. I finally found that I was missing one 
chmod in one folder. 

It's now working.
Creating review with base CC is working fine, now I'll check with UCM.

Thanks again.

Re: ClearCase and ReviewBoard setup : Any pointer, best practice or setup instruction ?

2019-08-19 Thread Christian Hammond
Hi Laurent,

Yeah, it's been a while since the community has made improvements to the
ClearCase implementation. We've considered completely redoing it, but
haven't been clear on how many people are still using it, and I'm not sure
how those people who still are are using it in production.

I know the first issue is just legacy code that needs to be fixed to no
longer check an ancient variable, and we'll get that check fixed in the
next version (it's easy to just remove manually for now, if you want to dig
into that clearcase.py file in your installed copy of RBTools).

The latter two exceptions are definitely the same root cause of the
permissions issue. IBM has this Technote on the situation:

https://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21230157

Given that, I think either you want to just make Apache a user in your
group, or just have the permissions be 775 instead of 770. It's going to be
dependent on your organization's needs, I think.

The error could use some serious improving, and I'll look at that.

Christian

ClearCase and ReviewBoard setup : Any pointer, best practice or setup instruction ?

2019-08-19 Thread Laurent M.
Good morning,

I've setup RB with Git with no issue, but when trying with ClearCase, that 
did not went well. 
I understand the current integration is done by the community. 
Looking at old messages (both in forum, review and bugtracking) did not 
really help.


I was wondering if there are any kind of best practice or setup 
instructions somewhere or made by current CC user ?

I'm on CentOS, CC9.0.1.7, Apache, RB 3.0.15, RBT 1.0.2

The first issue I got was during a rbt post where it keep failing with 
missing attribute.

if parse_version(server.rb_version) >= parse_version('1.5.3'):
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/rbtools/api/resource.py", line 348, 
in __getattr__
% (self.__class__.__name__, name))
AttributeError: This RootResource does not have an attribute "rb_version".


After some time, I found out that it cannot grab the uuid and by renaming 
the repository to the CC vobtag, it could process.

Which is where I'm stuck now. I "know" the issue, it's with access 
permissions. But until now whatever I changed did not help.

When trying to post from rbt


>>> Error data: {u'stat': u'fail', u'err': {u'msg': u'There was an error 
fetching extended information for this repository.', u'code': 210}}
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/rbt", line 11, in 
sys.exit(main())
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/rbtools/commands/main.py", line 120
, in main
command.run_from_argv([RB_MAIN, command_name] + args)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/rbtools/commands/__init__.py", 
line 725, in run_from_argv
exit_code = self.main(*args) or 0
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/rbtools/commands/post.py", line 770
, in main
repository_info = repository_info.find_server_repository_info(api_root)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/rbtools/clients/clearcase.py", 
line 1252, in find_server_repository_info
raise SCMError('You do not have permission to access '
rbtools.clients.errors.SCMError: You do not have permission to access this 
repository.



When doing it from the web


  File 
"/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/reviewboard/scmtools/clearcase.py", 
line 58, in __init__
self.viewtype = self._get_view_type(self.repopath)
  File 
"/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/reviewboard/scmtools/clearcase.py", 
line 156, in _get_view_type
shell=_popen_shell)
  File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/subprocess.py", line 711, in __init__
errread, errwrite)
  File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/subprocess.py", line 1327, in _execute_child
raise child_exception
OSError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/view/rbview/vobs/stdvob'

>From what I understand, it cannot access the view/vob to grab/extract the 
file content.
The process is running under the apache/apache user
I have added the apache group to the VOB group list and reprotected (using 
protect and protectvob (so 'others' also have access)
Also made apache user as a member of the VOB group
I tried with a view from one user, also with a view created by the apache 
user.

So for people that actually run it, do you run it with the generic apache 
user or a more "CC" ones (like running an httpd instance as vob_owner) ?
I'm kind of surpized that, even if there are only a few CC user, there is 
not a lot of info on the "how-to".

Regards.
