Geeklog enlistment failed
Hi,
Geeklog changed the CVS server, its now
cvs -d:ext:[email protected]:/cvsroot/geeklog co Geeklog-1.x
password is geeklog
.
I tried to enter it as
source code URL :ext:[email protected]:/cvsroot/geeklog
module Geeklog-1.x
username anonymous
password geeklog
but I get an error: The cvs server did not respond to an 'ls' command. Are the URL and module name correct?
what could be wrong? This data should be working.
Also, I am missing a search-function for the forum :-)
Sorry, made a mistake in the report:
If I try :ext: I get a The URL does not appear to be a valid pserver connection string.
If I change the :ext: to pserver I get a The cvs server did not respond to an 'ls' command. Are the URL and module name correct?
hi tokyoahead,
the problem is that Ohloh doesn't support cvs's ext
protocol - which your server seems to only support. The answer is to enable pserver support on your (or geeklog's) server.
While pserver
is notoriously unsecure, this can be mitigated somewhat using a chroot jail. Check out this tutorial on how to achieve this.
Hope this helps.
Is there any particular reason for not supporting 'ext'? Ie. Novell Forge uses only ext.
