[rancid] Re: CVS Command Not Found When Using SVN

[Jason Ledford]

Can you make a symlink for /usr/bin/cvs that points to svn, like /usr/bin/svn or whatever it is (sorry, I don't use svn)?

Subject: [rancid] CVS Command Not Found When Using SVN

Hi all,

I am trying to configure RANCID to work properly. My company uses an SVN server, and I found a patch that is supposed to get RANCID to work with an SVN server. The patch was made by Karsten Heymann, and I found it here: http://www.shrubbery.net/pipermail/rancid-discuss/2008-December/003489.html

I've installed this patch, and RANCID does work to a point. When I run the bin/rancid-cvs command, it creates a log file in var/logs, and this is the contents of all the log files it has created:

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

starting: Mon Feb 9 07:01:01 GMT 2009

/usr/local/rancid/bin/control_rancid: line 353: cvs: command not found

ending: Mon Feb 9 07:01:02 GMT 2009

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

I have also declared RCSSYS environment variable as SVN, and SVN is working on the server RANCID is installed on. I have looked all over Google and I haven't managed to find an answer to this question. Could someone please help me out?

Many Thanks,
Mick
