I'd suggest compile with debug flags, and running cvs under gdb to see some more useful output. CFLAGS='-ggdb3 -O1 -save-temps' FEATURES='nostrip keepwork' emerge cvs and then run cvs under gdb. Hi, thanks for your help. I think I've solved the problem though. I was connecting to the CVS repository over a VPN. The VPN link was also giving me problems when transfering large files from one network to the other. I found that by reducing the MTU on the interface the transfer problem went away. This also seemed to solve my CVS problem, and I'm now able to commit to the repository. Not sure why I could check out files over the network, but not commit them back. It's beyond me... Thanks again. Antony |
Hi, I'm using the portage build of CVS version 1.12.12. When I run cvs commit to commit a file to the server, the command just hangs. It doesn't seem to matter which file, or which server I try the command with, the result is the same. cvs login, checkout etc all work OK. Using strace to try and debug the command I've found it hangs when it reaches the select function call. This is the relevant block from the strace command.. open("baportal.jsp", O_RDONLY) = 5 read(5, "<%@ page language=\"java\" %>\n<%@ "..., 3348) = 3348 read(5, "", 0) = 0 close(5) = 0 access("CVS/Entries.Log", F_OK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) write(3, "Argument -m\nArgument Test\nArgume"..., 3538) = 3538 munmap(0x2aaaaaac2000, 4096) = 0 fcntl(4, F_GETFL) = 0x2 (flags O_RDWR) fcntl(4, F_SETFL, O_RDWR|O_NONBLOCK) = 0 select(5, [4], NULL, NULL, NULL I'm not sure whether this is a CVS thing, or an OS type thing, but hope you can help. Thanks in advance, Antony Potter Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerged the cvs distribution. 2. checked out a cvs module 3. edit one of the checked out files 4. ran cvs commit -m "comment" file Actual Results: The command hangs. Expected Results: Successful commit to cvs repository.
