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

[Chris Gauthier]

That might work, except that svn and cvs may have different command-line
arguments?  I would imagine some decision-making logic would need to be
added to the code.

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)?

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.h
tml

 

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
