viewcvs does not work with my apache 1.3.x installation. The first line of the script is wrong (I believe it was copy paste from debian ?). When using default install one get, in the error log of apache: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/var/www/localhost/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi", line 60, in ? import sapi ImportError: No module named sapi [Fri Sep 23 15:53:58 2005] [error] [client 128.113.119.28] Premature end of script headers: /var/www/localhost/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi The solution is to edit: /var/www/localhost/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi and change the line: LIBRARY_DIR = "/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/viewcvs/" (this path does not even exist!) into LIBRARY_DIR = "/var/www/localhost/viewcvs/lib/" restart apache... you're all set. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3.
Which version are you using and if its the newer one, do you have the vhost flag set?
Yes this is the very latest viewcvs available: Latest version available: 1.0_pre20050523 Latest version installed: 1.0_pre20050523 No I did not modify the [vhosts] secton from viewcvs.conf: #--------------------------------------------------------------------------- [vhosts] ### DOC # vhost1 = glob1, glob2 # vhost2 = glob3, glob4 # [vhost1-section] # option = value # [vhost1-othersection] # option = value # [vhost2-section] # option = value # # Here is an example: # # [vhosts] # lyra = *lyra.org # # [lyra-general] # forbidden = hideme # # [lyra-options] # show_logs = 0 # # Note that "lyra" is the "canonical" name for all hosts in the lyra.org # domain. This canonical name is then used within the additional, vhost- # specific sections to override specific values in the common sections. #
No, I meant did you have the vhost useflag enabled or not? :)

Did you perhaps install viewcvs before a python upgrade? If not, can you please try my newest ebuild which I just committed? (1.0_pre20050929) I tried getting this to happen in a chroot and it installed fine from what I could tell.
Created attachment 69781 [details] reconfig Aha! I think I figured out whats going on. There's a script in files called reconfig that gets called everytime you do an install or clean. Apparently I needed to add another if statement for upgrades. Can you please replace the reconfig script with this one and see if it fixes the problem? Apparently, this issue only comes up with you upgrade. Thanks..
Ok I try updating: emerge --sync emerge --update viewcvs and the first thing I discover is that all my settings in viewcvs.conf are lost :( I'll try again tomorrow with your new script.
I'm really getting the impression that webapp-config doesn't like having things installed out of htdocs very well. web-apps: Is it problem that I have stuff installed outside of htdocs?
I am looking at: http://bugs.gentoo.org/attachment.cgi?id=69781 and there is absolutely no difference with the reconfig I have in: 2c2 < # $Id: reconfig,v 1.6 2005/10/03 14:06:18 ramereth Exp $ --- > # $Id: reconfig,v 1.5 2005/10/03 05:06:28 ramereth Exp $ Did you include it with the viewcvs-1.0_pre20050929 ? Anyway I am looking at: /var/www/localhost/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi And it still contains my change. If I change it back to the original: LIBRARY_DIR = "/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/viewcvs/" then again I get the 500 Internal Server Error 500. So again I'll put back: LIBRARY_DIR = "/var/www/localhost/viewcvs/lib/"
Yeah, I went ahead and included that new reconfig file. When I tried installing viewcvs w/o the vhosts flag, it appeared to have installed the cgi-bin stuff in /var/www/localhost/cgi-bin/viewcvs/viewcvs.cgi. Is that there? I'm wondering if you're touching the wrong file.
As a side note, next time you update viewcvs could you change amd64 keyword, thanks (bug #106915) I'll unmerge delete old files and start from scratch

Ok and the bug report can be found at: http://mailman.lyra.org/pipermail/viewcvs/2005q4/003795.html WARNING: viewcvs 1.0_pre20050929 is not stable. Don't use, or else apply reversed patch of: http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/viewcvs/viewcvs/lib/vclib/bincvs/__init__.py?r1=1.55&r2=1.56
Ok, thanks for the fix! I'll see about making a patch to the current snapshot instead of making another snapshot all together. Sorry for all the trouble. I didn't seem to have this problem so I didn't know it existed.
Just to keep track of the current problems, here is a sum'up of what I would like: - Add support for AMD64 (bug #106915) - viewcvs.conf(or cvsgraph.conf) should not be erased when emerge update - restore commitid support: http://mailman.lyra.org/pipermail/viewcvs/2005q4/003797.html thanks
And one more thing, each time I install viewcvs it creates an empty viewcvs dir: $ ls -al /var/www/localhost/htdocs/viewcvs total 16 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 120 Oct 4 14:17 ./ drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 232 Oct 4 14:17 ../ -rw------- 1 root root 337 Oct 4 14:17 .webapp -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 10806 Oct 4 14:17 .webapp-viewcvs-1.0_pre20050929 What are those files ?
current CVS of viewcvs contains a bug fix for commitid problem: http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/viewcvs/viewcvs/lib/vclib/bincvs/__init__.py?r1=1.61&r2=1.62
Thanks for pointing that out. I was actually going to try and get this in the tree in the next few days. Good thing he got a newer version of that going :). Btw, I think for a temporary 'fix' on the overwriting config problem, I'll just copy it as a .example file until I can get the webapps herd input. I'll let you know when I get this finished and will probably require a revbump since this will fix some known issues.
