An error occurred when trying to access the repository: No such file or directory

I'm new to Redmine and trying to set it up to use a repository. I've searched the forums and the faq and howtos and just can't find any solution except for a thread that says that running redmine on a windows environment adds a "/" to the end of the CVS module name when executing CVS commands.

This is the error I get when clicking on Repositories link in a project in redmine: An error occurred when trying to access the repository: No such file or directory - cvs -d :sspi:mntdev:/MNTITDOCS rlog "test/"

The repository name is MNTITDOCS (yes in caps) and the module is "test" and as you can see Redmine adds a "/" (forward-slash) to the module name at execution time.

Is there any work around to this or am I doing something wrong?

I'm running:
Windows Server 2003
Redmine 0.8.4
Ruby186-27_rc2
cvsnt-2.5.03.2382

Any help would be much appreciated.

Regards

Bryan

Or alternatively, is there a repository that does work with Redmine on Windows? I'm willing to try something else.

I want to use it for technical specifications for System development.

Managed to figure it out.

For those of you who run into the same problem:

SCM command failed, make sure that your SCM binary (eg. svn) is in PATH (C:\Program Files\Windows Resource Kits\Tools\;D:\Apps\Ruby\bin;C:\WINDOWS\system32;C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\System32\Wbem;C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\80\Tools\Binn\;C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\90\DTS\Binn\;C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\90\Tools\binn\): cvs -d :sspi:mntdev:/MNTITDOCS rlog "test/"

For some reason the binary file needs to be in all of these directories - ???
