I installed this into CS3. I was able to create a new module on our CVS repository. However I can never get any files to update/commit. The command issues does not submit my login and password at all that I specified when creating a new module. How's this suppose to all work?

I rebooted my machine, and now no matter what I do I get "Key expired" message. I click OK or Buy Now or anything, and the DreamWeaver CS3 crashes. I guess this is a trial version limited to 25 uses. Well it took me 25 tries I guess to try and get this to work.

I use WebSphere just fine with CVSNT. I want to get DreamWeaver to work too. I'm using all the same config that my WebSphere is using with this CVS4DW product. If I can get this to work, I would definitly buy! But until I get it working with the trial version, I will not buy it.

Contact us at support at grafxsoftware.com and we will create a temporary key for you.

OK I emailed you guys requesting this, but keep in mind I still need assistance in trying to figure out how to update/commit my files up to my module I had it create in the CVS repository. Our staff uses DreamWeaver CS3 for all our ASP applications and IBM WebSphere 6 for all our JSP/RPG applications. Websphere works great with CVSNT for source control and this would be great to add ASP source control with DreamWeaver using our existing CVSNT for our staff!

OK, We got it and we will send to you a temporary key.
If you have problems, you can ask here on forum, then everyone can see it for future reference, or ask on ticketing system, if you send sensitive data.

Yes thank you I can now use it again. Now onto my problem of not being able to commit/update and getting the error:

****************************************
cvs login: No CVSROOT specified! Please use the `-d' option
cvs [login aborted]: or set the CVSROOT environment variable.
****************************************

I'm guessing for this addon I need to setup an environment variable in order to checkout/update files?

Here is how I have WebSphere setup and working. It uses:
:pserver:Charlie@CCRPWEBDEV:2401:/cvsrepo

How do I put this environment variable in? I'm trying variable/values of like this: [CVSROOT] / :pserver:Charlie@CCRPWEBDEV:/cvsrepo

nothing seems to work though..

Try to checkout and use that directory for commit/update and tell us if it works.

What it does when I check it out is it seems to log on fine, then it creates the local working directory I specify and simply puts an empty out1.txt file. Why is it doing this?

Here are the results:

***************************
cvs -d:pserver:Charlie@CCRPWEBDEV:/cvsrepo "login" -p "*****"

Logging in to :pserver:Charlie@ccrpwebdev:2401:/cvsrepo

mkdir C:\cvslocal\


cvs -z1 -d:pserver:Charlie@CCRPWEBDEV:/cvsrepo "co" "ExtraNet"

cvs server: Updating ExtraNet

And after doing this, when I try to Commit or Update a file, I get this for results:

********************

cvs [login aborted]: or set the CVSROOT environment variable.

cvs -z1 "commit" -m "" "ADLogin.asp"

This m:\ it is on mapped drive?
As far as I know CVS have problems to work with mapped drives.
Also you need to have DEFINE a site in Dreamweaver, not just use it with his brower, this is very important step.
Can you confirm?

I've never had a M: mapped drive. I did not specify M: anywhere. I was wondering why the heck it was doing this also... So this is just happening out of the blue.

I've always used my defined sites. i'm in my defined site now and i go to "Local View" and right click on a file and use the CVS option to check out a file. It seems to do this fine. But when I go to commit, I'm asked to send my password in the clear, and get this error:

------------------------------------
cvs "login" -p "*****"

cvs login: No CVSROOT specified! Please use the `-d' option
cvs [login aborted]: or set the CVSROOT environment variable.

cvs -z1 "update" "ADLogin.asp"
------------------------------------

Please give me a list of all subdirectories of that directory (to see what it's wrong). Or at least, search for "CVS" directories.
Paul

On my local drive I have:
c:\cvslocal
- \ExtraNet\out1.txt

On the server called CCRPWEBDEV there is:
cvsrepo\ExtraNet
- out1.txt,v
- \CVS\fileattr.xml

In my defined site I have many subdirectories and files. And I'm simply trying to update just one of them to CCRPWEBDEV.

It is possible that you have 2 times CVSNT on your computer? You mentioned that you use with WebSphere. If you hit from command line cvs - h
Concurrent Versions System (CVSNT) 2.5.03 (Scorpio) Build 2382 (client/server)

You should get back this. Could be this the problem that your 2CVSNT is overlapping, dunno is just a hint, happened before that if was 2 CVS on same computer, then get problems, but is strange why it work with checkout and not with commit.

Also it is possible to get a Remote Access to your computer or VNC? Then we can see maybe better what is the problem.

I did a CVS - v on both my local PC and CCRPWEDEV server.. both are running version 2.5.03 (Scorpio) Build 2382.

I'll email you on how you can access my PC remotely. Then hopefully you can determine the problem that way.

yes, we got it, but only tomorrow programmer can enter.

--> one month later

Can you give me a date / time Pacific Standard Time you can schedule to access my PC between 11am-7pm?
