Sudden Loss of CVS / Team Functionality [message #119620] Fri, 29 August 2003 23:59 Go to next message

I need help diagnosing a problem. I doubt the problem lies
with Eclipse, but I can't figure out what it going on.

My problem is that Eclipse has decided, incorrectly, that
most of my projects are not under source control.

When I look at the project properties, the CVS page is
missing. When I attempt to access the CVS repository via
the 'Team' menu, or the related 'Compare with' and 'Replace
with' menus, none of the CVS options are offered.

All of these projects were working properly recently. The
project files have changed in any way. I had not changes my
Eclipse install -- though while attempting to resolve this
problem I have updated from 2.1.0 to the latest 2.1.1
version using the Update Manager. My CVS password has
changed recently. And I did successfully enter the new
password while performing an update -- perhaps the last time
I was able to successfully access this CVS repository from
one of the affected projects.

My problem projects all belong in our company's cvs
repository. I have one other CVS repository configured for
a sourceforge project that I use. That sourceforge project
is working correctly. The CVS features are all working
fine for that one project.

I have tried deleting a few of the problem projects and
checking them out again. I can check the projects out, and
the checked out files include the requisite CVS/ directories
with OK looking ./Entries, ./Repository, and ./Root files in
each. It looks totally cool. But the CVS connection is
again broken in the freshly checked out projects. OBTW,
Eclipse does not log any problems to the .log file.

Any clues on how to debug this problem would be greatly
appreciated.

Cheers,
KC Jones

You try simple cvs client and checkout projects
(export CVSROOT=<server> (or set CVSROOT=<server> on win,
cvs co <project>

If it work then a problem is eclipse

Can you still explore the CVS server (see the CVS perspective)?

What appears in the Team menu? Is the Share Project option there? If so,
try it and see what happens. Is there anything in your log file? Perhaps
an error occurred during the checkout.

(Sorry for the belated follow up. Posting on a pre-holiday
Friday evening was a minor mistake!)

The Team menu does show the 'Share project...' option. When
I do that Eclipse figures out where that the project was
checked out from. After that the team features are
restored and all is well.

I guess I'm back in business. Thanks.

But there does appear to be a bug that caused the connection
to cvs to be lost.

Still puzzled,
KC
