Common Client Information: I'm having trouble configuring JEDIVCS to work with mySQL (v5). I've created the database, running both the scripts, created the jedivcs user and can see the database in mySQL Administrator. I'm having trouble figuring out what settings I put in the DBMS tab for the database. What values do I supply for server and database? Is server localhost? The browse button for database name selection doesn't seem to know about mySQL. Additionally the database specific tabs down the bottom exist for Firebird, MSSQL and FlashFiler but not for mySQL. Does this mean I have a faulty installation? |

Usage / JVCS tips: I need to run syncronise my source from within a custom build tool I'm writing. Can this be done. Through run parameters maybe? I'm hoping for something like ..\FreeVCS -sync . I've tried automation with TestComplete, but had a hard time with the progress bars. I've checked and I can't see whether run parameters are supported. The only option seems to be to have to pay $1000 for final builder 5, which kinda defies the point of what I want to do. Please help |

Usage / JVCS tips: Hi guys! We are wondering if there is a way to synchronize the code in different folders or if there must be the same absolute path on each system. "Internal" paths of the project are the same on each system. E.g. developer 1 has his projects in "My documents" while developer 2 stores his projects on a different drive and folder which is "P:\projects". Thanks a lot for your help! All the best from Germany, Stefan |

Client Errors: I've added a DTD file to my VCS project. Unfortuatly the file was modified by the check-in comment => { 26.04.2007 10:47:20 (GMT+2:00) > [UserXXX on PC_YYY] checked in 1. Version } But this comment is not compatible with XML nor DTD files and makes the file invalid. How can i control which file types are safe to add comments by the VCS ? Is it hardcoded in the sourcecode ? Notice: if there is a bug, please post this to the issue tracker. For some strange reasons my proxy server presents only empty mantis web pages. thank you. |

Client Errors: I'm trying to add a file to a new project, and getting this error even though the file and folder appear to be writable: "Check In . JEDI VCS expects the local file to be writable, but the file is read-only. Continue anyway?" The filename is not being listed in the field near the top of the dialog, even though it should. Continuing gives: "No path information available. JEDI VCS cannot add or check-in the module without path information." Hitting "OK" gives: " not added". Any ideas of what is causing it to not maintain the filename information when adding/checking in? |

Client Errors: I'm running v2.4.3 and I usually get errors when checking in files that read like "Cannot open file "C:\Users\scott\AppData\Local\Temp\JVC4655.tmp". Access is denied." It's always when I check in multiple files, but usually the first 2 or 3 get checked in and then the errors comes. Similarly if I checkin files individually (painful) I eventually get the message. Sometimes a F5 seems to temporarily alleviate the problem, but usually a client restart is required before I can checkin anymore files. Any thoughts? |
