Re: problem with latest cvsnt

[Russ Sherk]

Hi Alex,

See the faq at march-hare.com
(http://www.march-hare.com/cvspro/faq/faq1.asp#1j).  They host
cvsnt stuff.  There is no google newsgroup.

Newsgroup
news://news.cvsnt.org/support.cvsnt

E-mail list

my apologies if this is not the newsgroup for cvsnt (if its not could
someone direct me to the right one).

anyway, I just setup a new cvsnt server and am trying to access it
using the latest tortoisecvs.  I'm trying to use sserver.  I createda
repository with name /tconf and it's in the directory d:/tconf.  It
has a cvs folder inside it and looks to be properly initialized.


On the client, if I right click an empty directory and go to checkout.
I setup the server, username, module name, etc.  But it tells me that
the

-------------------------------------------------

In F:\test2: "C:\Program Files\TortoiseCVS\cvs.exe" "-q" "checkout"
"-P" "/tconf"
CVSROOT=:sserver:address@hidden:8400:D:/tconf

Empty password used - try 'cvs login' with a real password
cvs.exe [checkout aborted]: D:/tconf: no such repository

Error, CVS operation failed

--------------------------------------------------


However, if I set this stuff up in DOS based on this website

http://web.telia.com/~u86216177/InstallCVSNT25.html

(see the 'test your new server from dos') then I can list the contents
of the folder just fine.  One thing I did notice is that when I set it
up in DOS, the command stirng ends up something like
CVSROOT=: sserver:address@hidden:8400:/tconf as opposed to the tortoise
gui which looks like CVSROOT=:sserver:address@hidden:8400:D:/tconf.


anyone have any idea why this is failing?
