Workshop 8.1 useless with CVS

Hi all,
Workshop never works with CVS for me.
The CVS server is installed in Win 2000 machine. And it works fine when I do
CVS operations from other clients like
Inspite of asking BEA for many times, I could not solve the problem of
connecting to CVS NT Server.
SP2 also does not fixes the problem of connecting.
The error that I am getting is like this
cvs update: unknown method in CVSroot:
:ntserver:bkarthi@ets4218:F\\Aretail\\RepositoryCVS when I do any CVS
operation.
I know that the problem is in the CVSROOT.
Any body please tell me how can i connect to CVS NT Server means
provide me the correct CVSROOT for NT server which works with Workshop 8.1.
Also opened a case with BEA, a month ago but still no solution.
Thanks,
Karthi.

Hi all,
I came to know that the problem is the version of the CVSNT and cvs.exe that is available to Workshop through the environmental variable.
It is mandatory that we have to add cvs.exe to OS PATH. So that the workshop will launch this process.
This will solve the problem of create process.
But with problems that I faced, I understand that workshop is specific to particular version of "cvs.exe"
Now, I am able to access the CVS server from workshop but not with "ntserver" protocol. I am using "sspi" protocol.
I tried with "pserver" too, it works fine.
So I need to know which version of "cvs.exe", the developers are suppose to use.
Points to remember while configuring workshop with CVS.
1. correct "cvs.exe" should be in the PATH variable
2. Don't use "ntserver" protocol.
3. Use "pserver" or "sspi" ( I tested both. Works fine )
4. "pserver" protocol requires that the user should be logged in before doing a cvs operation.
5. To be functional , cvs module should be imported and check out before opening workshop. There is no built in method to import and check out from Workshop.
6. If want to customize workshop with cvs commands, CVSROOT variable should be defined before you launch the Workshop.
Thanks,
Karthi.

I also can not seem to find a way to configure the CVSROOT parameter to connect to CVS? Your right, it doesn't appear that there is a location to put the password for the CVS login! I get the following error:
commit starting...
Caught exception: CreateProcess: cvs -d:pserver:[email protected]:/cvsroot/gewt_portal commit -l -m a C:\bea\user_projects\applications\portalApp\portalWebApp\Controller.jpf error=2

  • Workshop 8.1 beta working with CVS or Clearcase

    Hello,
    I have 2 questions.
    I know BEA Workshop 8.1 is suppose to be able to work with CVS out of the box.
    Is this currently supported in the Beta release?
    Second, I've had a request to see if I could make Workshop work with Clearcase
    Source control. Typically I would figure this would be something BEA would provide
    downstream. However if the CVS integration is script driven, then it may be possible
    to modify the script to send clearcase commands.
    Regardless, does anybody have any insight to this or is it not possible to get
    Workshop to work with Clearcase with out BEA providing this capability.
    btw I do realize you can simply just use the source control seperate from Workshop,
    however I'm looking for the integrate method if possible.
    thanks

  • Checkout folder with CVS JDeveloper 10g

    Hi
    Is there way to checkout only folder with CVS JDeveloper 10g? I have module on CVS server, but let say it consist of two folders, src/ which contains myPackages//*.java
    and config/, which contains my ear application exploded structure. And my question is, is there a way that every programmer create project himself, only locally, and checkout from CVS only *.java files(so only subdirectories of my src folder in module main directory), with assumption of later controlling them from JDeveloper?
    I mean, it's not a good idea to have application and project files in cvs, right?
    mn

    Hi,
    Was the project imported to CVS at the same time as the package structure?
    Do the project source paths match the filesystem? For example, does the java source path match the root of the java source? Jdev normally puts files in a flat structure if the files are not in the right file system folder for their java package.
    If changing the project path does not fix this can you tell me what technologies your using, such as BC4J, struts, Tag libs, etc.. Then I can try and reproduce this here.
    Many thanks,

  • JDev hangs with CVS

    Help! :-)
    We are having a LOT of problems with CVS and speed with JDeveloper 10.1.3.1.
    Looking for changes in CVS it's literally locking our PC's up
    for up to 5 minutes.
    It eventually finishes but it's pretty painful. We
    have decent PC's (p4 2.8ghz 1.0 gb ram) so we don't believe it's a resource issue.
    We are using version CVS 1.11.21 on a HP-UX box. Our JDeveloper version
    is 10.1.3.1 (preview). We also attempted the project with Jdeveloper 10.1.3.
    We are using the CVS extension 10.1.3.39.14
    When we go to find the incoming changes it pegs the CPU. It's a project
    with nearly 1000 files. We have seen the same issue now on 4 different
    PCs.
    We have begun to think about Subversion for our source control for JDeveloper integration due to our issues with CVS
    Two questions
    1. Have you heard of this issue with CVS and JDeveloper before?
    2. Do you recommend Subversion?

    JDeveloper: 10.1.3.0.4 (SU3) does NOT have the issue.
    If you apply Service Pack 5 or go to the JDeveloper Developer Preview the issue exists.
    The issue again is that the CVS plug in locks up your PC for up to 5 minutes when looking for incoming changes on large projects. It pegs the CPU at 100%. It's very easy to reproduce and we have seen it on at least four different PC's.
    What is the best way to get visibility to this issue with Oracle? We are now stuck on 10.1.3.0.4 (SU3) with CVS putting us two service packs behind.
    Thanks!

  • Does anyone know why iPad mini is useless with ios7 ?

    Does anyone know why iPad mini is useless with ios7 ?

    First thing to try is to reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.

  • My Airport is USELESS with Snow Leopard..What will it be with Lion?

    Mr Jobs,
    Like you would every get this . I am super annoyed
    wth Snow Leopard.I ususally wait for the second to last or
    last version of an OS before I upgrade. The reason is
    simple, my Apple computer has worked fine, I didn't
    have any big need to upgrade and though I want to stay up to
    date I hate to fix something that "ain't broken.:" Well
    Snow Leopard has screwed up my MacBook Pro big time. My
    trusty MacBook Pro 17 (old core duo) has paid the rent for
    since day one.
    I am a Shooter/Director and need my laptop to work. I am a
    more than adequate FCS editor. Snow Leopard has sent me
    into a spin! My airport is useless. There is no simple
    path to older software so though I may be 60 years old I
    still need to use tools I have used or at least be offered
    the option of moving forward to new ones. It is NOT YTOUR
    style.
    I am writing this from my old G5, edit suite.  My MacBook Pro 17 is not able to connect to my Airport. My sister-in-law is in the next room with her MacBook Pro (same year as mine but 15") and on lien skype-ing and chatting and surfing. I can connect for more than 30 seconds and my "update software" is at the top of the chain. *****! I will be re-formating my hard drive and going back to Leopard SANS SNOW tomorrow! And folks spare me the silly advice.  If you buy an OS and install it and do the upgrades , it should work. That is what Apple is about. That is why I have bought and used Apple since DAY One.  I sold my TI and Commodore when I saw an Apple!
    I know you will NEVER read this, but I needed to vent.
    If you do, I will super happy to hear you did, you are well
    and that you have passed it down the line.
    Stay well and with us for a long time and all the great
    innovations!
    Best
    Brian Murphy

    If I had a nickel for every time I saw someone blame a system update for something silly, I'd be quite rich by now.  If you believe reports on public forums, every release of Mac OS X has been the worst ever, which is obviously not true to anyone who has actually used all those systems.  So, while there may be a lot of people reporting wireless problems with SL, that does not make it fact that the cause of the problem is SL.  Fact: I have not seen wireless problems with any Macs running SL.
    But, you seem not interested in listening to such things.  You know that it's SL's fault.  So there's really no solution for you but to revert to Leopard.  If you're interested in getting things working with SL, as I said, post back on a different topic with details.  (Since you started this topic with a bit of a rant, it's going to be difficult for you to get help on this topic.)

  • Problem removing files with CVS (JDeveloper 10.1.3 Preview)

    Hello,
    I've got a problem removing files from CVS :
    - I right-click on the file I want to remove -> Versioning -> Remove
    - The file is removed from local directory, and it appears in "Pending changes" view, on "Outgoing" tab. Its status is "scheduled for removal".
    - When I commit the file in the "Pending Changes" view, and click OK, then nothing happens. The file stay with "scheduled for removal" status, and it is not deleted on CVS server.
    I tried to commit the package or the project, but it's the same thing.
    Files additions and modifications work correctly.
    I'm using JDeveloper 10.1.3 Preview version.
    Is this a bug ? Or do I do something wrong ? Is there an other way to solve my problem ?
    Thanks.

    Here is the message displayed in the log window when I remove file (in Versioning menu) :
    C:\J2EE\Projets\budgetapptest\src\test\swm>

    cvs remove: scheduling `Test_suppr_1.java' for removal
    cvs remove: use 'cvs commit' to remove this file permanently

  • Problems with CVS and improvements required

    Developing with JDeveloper 9.0.3 preview we have found some bugs and some improvements that would be very useful.
    Problems
    1)     Overlay icons on versioned files dont show the real state of the file as described in the Using Concurrent Versions System (CVS) With JDeveloper section of the Using Support for Team Based Development help manual (this issue was solved with a patch for the 9.0.2 release but it cant be applied for the 9.0.3 preview).
    2)     When CVS finds revision conflicts on the project file (.jpr) or on the descriptors of BC4J objects and packages, it overwrites (properly) the source file with the <<<<<< and >>>>>> comments to denote the conflict, and the warning for the conflict is signaled in the CVS log; but it would be nice (because it is annoying to check everytime the CVS log especially for a critical message like a conflict) having a message box reporting these critical messages.
    3)     During the import module function to import the project files into the CVS server, the image files (such as .GIF and .JPG) ought to be automatically added as binary files, or better still, it would be useful a configuration fuction to enumerate the extensions to be added as binary files.
    4)     After some types of CVS commands the CVS editors and CVS watchers windows becomes suddenly closed.
    Required Improvements
    1)     It would be useful a function showing all the files to be added to source control in a list and in a more general case, the versioning status of all the project files, without having to expand all the nodes of the project tree.
    2)     Its uncomfortable the current behaviour for the check out/edit on the project file (jpr) that automatically selects all files included within it. It would be useful to explicitly select to operate only on the project file or to include also the files within it; or at least to place the project file at the top of the list.
    3)     The Edit Files command for the CVS source control ought to support the cvs edit option -c (to check that working files are unedited) and an option to execute an update command before the edit one, to have the most recent revision of that file.
    4)     The opportunity to treat every type of BC4J object as a single CVS entity, taking all the files required by the single BC4J object grouped together and then checked-in, checked-out, etc. in a simple one-click operation.

    1) Overlay icons [cut] Has the problem returned in 9.0.3 and if so can you give me details of your cvs client version i.e CVSNT 1.0.11.1.3 etc.. It would be really helpful in tracking this down. The CVS version in use is (from the cvs --version command output): Concurrent Versions System (CVSNT) 1.11.1.3  (Build 57a) (client/server). The JDeveloper version is 9.0.3.988 preview.This is the client version we test against and recommend. We have seen no problems here and can't reproduce this. Could you help us track this down by supplying the answers to the following questions?
    1, What OS and CVS version is the server using?
    2, For a file that is showing the incorrect overlay could you check the timestamp in the CVS\entries file and post that and the timestamp on the actual file system file?
    3, What timezone are you currently working in and is daylight savings time in operation?
    and finally
    4, Is the CVS server in the same timezone?
    Hopefully this will give us a good start on where the problem is.
    [cut]
    We have already configured cvswrappers to properly handle binary files, but the cvs import function seems to ignore these settings, while cvs add uses it. If you try to import a project with some gif files using jdev, having configured cvs as described, these files will be corrupted. After this, if you add another gif file using cvs add function (not add binary) the settings will be used and the file are correctly stored.
    It seems that to make the import command work properly, file types have to be explicitly specified for each binary file (-kb option) on the cvs command line. To verify this we have tried the same operations using wincvs client. Inspecting the log window, we see that the client explicitly force the file types (they use an internal filtering to recognize binary files instead of file extension):
    cvs import -I ! -I CVS -W "*.gif -k 'b'" -m "no message" testmodule avendor areleaseRight, I'll add this information to the bug and make sure it gets evaluated.
    4) After some types of CVS commands the CVS editors and CVS watchers windows becomes suddenly closed. Could yet tell me what these operations are so I can log a bug? We dont know if its effectively a bug, but the window becomes closed when automating layout switching occurs (if its enabled in preferences), for example: Im in the ide without any open editors (current layout Editing), I get the editors list, then I open an uiXML file (the layout switch to Web Editing) and the list disappears. Even if the layout switch back to Editing (automatically or manually) the list is not re-shown (its not saved in the layout).This is an issue with JDevs layout in that the SCM windows are not default in any layout and so they are closed when the switch occurs. This is being looked at for a future release.
    3) The Edit Files command for the CVS source control ought to support the cvs edit option -c (to check that working files are unedited) and an option to execute an update command before the edit one, to have the most recent revision of that file. I'll add enhancement requests for these I especially like the update before edit suggestion. For team based development the reserved edit functionality (the -c option) would be very useful, especially for working with business components.I'll add your use case to the enhancement, as this is a very good reason to have "-c". Hopefully if we can implement 4) and integrate source control and BC4J better in a future release.
    4) The opportunity to treat every type of BC4J object as a single CVS entity, taking all the files required by the single BC4J object grouped together and then checked-in, checked-out, etc. in a simple one-click operation. We would also like to have support for this in source control and it is a feature that is currently under investigation.It would be -very- useful if, while trying to edit a generic component under source control, jdev suggested (in the edit dialog window, for example) which other files are likely to be modified, giving the chance to edit them also (if not already). For example, trying to edit a ViewObject component, it will be probably needed also to edit the .jpx, the project, the business package descriptor, in addition to the component implementation and descriptor.Agreed.
    We also have some doubts on the meaning of the dialog that often appears after a checkout or a folder update, asking New checked out files were detected; how would you like them to be dealt with?. Can you explain whats the behavior of each choice?The three choices breakdown as follows
    1. Open checked out files in the active project
    This adds all files to the project that is active in the IDE, if all files were already in the project no change will appear to occur. If new files have been downloaded they will now appear in the project
    2. Create a New project for the checked out files
    Generate a completely new fresh project from the checked out files, similar to the default behaviour of checkout module in JDev
    3. Do not open a new checked out files.
    Perform no action with the files, lets the user add them if they so wish.
    Thanks for the replies,

  • Working with CVS and Java Studio Creator 2

    Hello,
    I'm a new user of java studio creator and I would like to make a project using ths CVS.
    First, I've installed a CVS server on a computer.
    Then I've created a new project (an example included with JSC)
    Then I've customized the version manager in JSC 2 to connect to the remote CVS server.
    No problem, if I try to connect to CVS in the version manager, it work ("You are connected").
    On the other hand, when I want to check out my project on the CVS (the first check out), I've got this error :
    cvs server: connect to 82.252.252.173(82.252.252.173):2402 failed: Une tentative de connexion a �chou� car le parti connect� n'a pas r�pondu convenablement au-del� d'une certaine dur�e ou une connexion �tablie a �chou� car l'h�te de connexion n'a pas r�pondu.
    cvs [server aborted]: Couldn't connect to lock server
    Have you got an idea on the configuration error I've done (no solution found in the articles nor faq)?
    Thanks in advance
    Nicolas

    Hello,
    You can see checked out files when you use the Versioning Manager. Just expand the tree to see individual files and folders. It's always a good idea to do an update before you start editing a file in Studio Creator. The Merge Conflict Resolver is a a very useful tool when more than one developer is working on a file.
    You can find a lot more about version control in the IDE's help files.
    And by the way, your English is fine.

  • Workshop 8.1.x with IE7 Beta installed??

    Has anyone tried installing IE7's beta with Workshop installed on the same machine?
    I have tried this and I am now missing all of the image rendering in the JSP editor of Workshop. They all just appear as red x's.
    Any thoughts?
    Yes, I know this is beta, but the reason we use betas is to identified these types of issues.

    Hi Christopher,
    I've tried this with both IE7 Beta2 and Beta3 and have noticed the same behavior. There is a internal bug filed on this issue.
    The only workaround which I am aware of is to uninstall IE7.
    The reason for this behavior is that the 8.1 IDE relied on IE specific behavior, which is why the JSP editor was only available on Windows and not on Solaris. In IE7, looks like MS has changed soemthign which is causing this issue.
    Thanks

  • Problem with CVS conflict in .jpr file

    Hi,
    we have a project that approx 4 people will work on. We use CVS to do this.
    We have a workspace with several projects. Now, if 2 people work on a project and both add some new entity objects, and person A
    commits his changes, person B will get CVS conflicts when updating the project from CVS. Yesterday, I was person B.
    First question: how can we work together on a project without getting these conflicts all the time?
    Second question is this specific conflict:
    I closed jdeveloper (903prev), since there's no way to resolve the conflict from inside jdeveloper. I edited the file, and tried to resolve the conflict. This is the conflict in the .prj file:
    <<<<<<< core.jpr
    <Item class="oracle.jbo.dt.jdevx.ui.JdxNode">
    <URL protocol="ide.bc4j.file" path="/PMS/core/reservations/reservations.jbo"/>
    <owner path="src/core.jpx"/>
    <package>PMS.core.reservations</package>
    <type>Package</type>
    </Item>
    =======
    <Item class="oracle.jdevimpl.cm.dt.sqlplus.SqlNode">
    <URL path="src/triggers.sql"/>
    </Item>
    1.4and this conflict:
    <<<<<<< core.jpr
    <Value>1031220960328</Value>
    </Item>
    <Item>
    <Key>oracle.jbo.package.PMS.core.suitcases</Key>
    <Value>1031316378531</Value>
    =======
    <Value>1031648137187</Value>
    1.4Well, the first conflict is resolvable. But what about the second conflict? What are these <Value> numbers and which number belongs to what?
    Third question:
    core.xml (in my core package) contains a conflict too:
    <<<<<<< core.xml
    TimeStamp="1031220960328"
    =======
    TimeStamp="1031648137187"
    1.4This is stupid. Ofcourse this leads to a conflict. But jdeveloper should be able to resolve this. How can we work with several people on a project if we get conflicts like these? CVS is great for working together on a project, I've used it for years. But from inside jdeveloper, it's giving me headaches. :-(
    Greetings,
    Ivo

    Hi Ivo,
    Unfortunately this looks like BC4J is storing timestamps in both project and package files. This leads to unresolvable conflicts in the files and CVS marks them for your attention. The same thing would happen under any SCM system in a concurrent multi-user environment.
    We use an external CVS client so we have no influence on its ability to merge files of this type, however we can hopefully change the format of the files in question in an attempt to prevent this from occuring.
    I have logged bug 2561497 agianst BC4J and published it so it can be tracked via metalink.
    The most help I can provide is that the numbers look like timestamps so choosing the higher of the two numbers each time should resolve the merge successfully.
    Thanks,

  • Strange issue with cvs output

    I have a report that works fine.
    in the report I have the cvs enable output turned on.
    when I click on the link to get the output and it opens in excel, all the columns are there, but one of the columns has the header but is blank on data. in the screen report its there, but not in cvs. has anyone see this type of issue before?

    I have seen odd behavior like this, not this one exactly, when downloading reports to csv. I found that if the data in a column has certain characters, it would mess up the layout of the csv report. These characters were usually "non-printing" characters that were in a certain cell. The one that messed my report up was the character that indented the data within a cell. I also had intermittent issues with double quotes in the data and "soft" line breaks in the data (entered by pressing ALT-Enter key sequence in the original spreadsheet that we had uploaded). Open the csv file in an editor like Notepad++ or even MS Word. and see if you can figure out what is going on. Look carefully in the area where the discrepancies first apear; it could be coming from another cell.

  • Safari Useless With 10.5.5 and Inquisitor.

    Hi,
    I installed 10.5.5 and Inquisitor at the same time.. what resulted is that Safari now loads with two navigation toolbars.. one unusable toolbar with Inquisitor and a normal toolbar.. but Safari cannot load any pages and tabs dont work..
    I removed Inquisitor manually but it still shows up in Safari.. I have not found one solution to successfully remove Inquisitor.. and Safari is now useless.
    I also created a new user to see if it was a conflict with my normal user profile but the same problems occurred..
    Any help would be appreciated..
    Cheers..

    Note that Inquisitor was sold to Yahoo in mid-2008 and that version 3.2 (Build 55) did not work with Safari but in fact seriously interfered with it and made it 'hang'.
    The latest version 3.2 (Built 58) is said to correct this issue - make sure that is what you download.
    Before uninstalling Inquisitor you should delete its search history:
    You can clear your history of searches in the Inquisitor preferences in your browser.
    . Safari
    . Open up the Preferences in Safari
    . Choose the Search tab. Click on Clear History.
    You can uninstall Inquisitor if you no longer wish to use it.
    . Safari
    . Navigate to your hard drive device
    . Select the Library folder
    . Select InputManager folder
    . Delete the Inquisitor folder

  • JDeveloper Slow with CVS 'Finding Incoming Changes'

    Hi all,
    My JDeveloper (10.1.3.3) has been running smoothly until we added a CVS connection to the IDE and put the projects under CVS control (CVSNT 2.5.03 Build 2382).
    The IDE (jdevW.exe) is drawing all my machine resources and there is always a "Finding incoming changes" process running as indicated at the lower-right-corner. The only thing I can do is to Iogout from the CVS server, and things resolve to normal.
    Is it a bug or if there is any configuration to get around this?
    Thanks.
    John

    We were having the exact same problem and found the culprit to be from a CVS module that was added via WinCVS. We had previously added the exact same project from inside jDeveloper and didn't have any problems for a year working with that repository.
    We still don't know why this is or even if it is exactly the cause,
    but try adding your project to CVS from within jDeveloper and see if it fixes your problems.
    Here is my forum thread about this issue:

  • Display issue - Photoshop useless with Dell XPS15

    That's not the point, Trevor, and a somewhat belittling comment to make: the OP obviously meant that Photoshop's GUI is tiny looking on a retina screen.
    If you happen to be using Photoshop CC, you can got to Preferences > Experimental features and check Scale UI 200%...  What that will do is turn your 3200 x 1800 display into a 1600 x 900 display.  I hope you can see the irony in that.
    That is an untrue and a ridiculous statement: the 200% patch scales up the GUI elements, and certainly DOES NOT decrease her retina display resolution to a 1600 x 900 one. The guides, images, pixels, and so on still display at 3200x1800px.
    As a matter of fact, a couple of users working on retina screens in this forum have already complained about the guides being too thin for comfort, since the 200% patch (yes, it is a patch, and not a real solution) only takes GUI elements into account.
    Retina screens are common place technology, and have been for a while now. Photoshop is still having issues with Retina screens on Windows, and it ought to have been fixed by now after years of complaints by users. That is the issue at hand here - not the supposedly unwise (in your opinion) decision to purchase a laptop with a retina screen.
    And regarding CS6: I find it ridiculous that Adobe continues to sell CS6 without a disclaimer or warning that some applications' GUIs are incompatible with retina screens on Windows. Warn potential customers, fix it, or stop selling it. Since Adobe made it quite abundantly clear they have no intention to fix this issue in CS6, at the very least a warning in the system requirements ought to be issued about retina screen incompatibilities.
