I'm trying to get CVS in Momentics 6.3.0 SP2 IDE working with extssh to a
CVSNT eclipse server. It all works fine with pserver connection. The CVSNT
machine has the latest cygwin sshd installed and running. ssh from the
development machine (using putty) can connect and login to the server just
fine. When attempting a file compare from the repository it errors out
with
the message "The server reported an error while performing the 'cvs
valid-requests' command".
For future reference I got this working.
When logging in with putty it launches bash, which runs .bash_profile, which
sets up the environment so the PATH includes the path to the CVSNT binaries.
When eclipse uses extssh to connect, bash is not started and the environment
is not set right. The solution was to add the CVSNT binary path to the
Windows environment (don't forget to reboot like I did, which caused another
few wasted hours). |
