Hi,
Could you guide me as to what steps i need to take in order for me to run it for linux. I am an absolute newbie to svn but i need to do this. I am running tortoise svn on client side and the server is linux based.

can you check and confirm that in ‘svn.php’ file , line number 42 “$output=shell_exec($cmd);” is giving the correct output. I think their is problem in executing shell_exec command.

Hi,

I’m trying to make use of your solution on Windows Server 2003 R2 x64 running VisualSVN Server 1.6.4.

The post-commit hook looks like below:

@echo off
echo %date% %time% Executing SVN post-commit script: http://xxxxx.org/alex/ads/index.php?repo=%1*%2 >> %1\ads.log
start c:\progra~1\intern~1\iexplore.exe http://xxxxx.org/alex/ads/index.php?repo=%1*%2
exit /b 1

I’ve created a new repository for testing, created a “trunk\[ProjectName]” path and committed ads.xml as well as some other files there.
(Please confirm that XML file should be committed to SVN rather than put on the repository directory on SVN server. It doesn’t work for me in either case ).

After I enable the post-commit hook, I try adding/deleting files from the created folder, and even for a single added file the commit process hangs.

ads.log contains the following:

DATE: 24, Mar 2009 Time: 07:26:05 Message: SVN_class:Creating Filelist
DATE: 24, Mar 2009 Time: 07:26:05 Message: SVN_class:
DATE: 24, Mar 2009 Time: 07:26:05 Message: SVN_class:

ads_tmp\filelist.txt file is created and left empty.
The ads_tmp folder is accessible to everyone, and has the same security permissions as the ads.log file (which is writeable as you see above).

Let me know if you have any clues or suggestions.

Thanks in advance.

@monalisa phig http://phing.info/ and xinc http://code.google.com/p/xinc/ are two tools for php. Otherwise you can look for ‘ant’ if you are comfortable with java.

Hi Amit,
I have some query. I want to automate a process of build. I want to replace the old build with new build and then I need to update the schema with current schema. I want to compare the schema and then run the difference script to update the schema. Can you suggest some good tool to automate the entire process.
