Redmine

Make sure that hg.exe is available in the PATH environment variable of Redmine.

yep. hg.exe is in the path... when I type hg in any folder... I get hg command menu..

PS.
I think it has something to do with how command string was built and executed.... when I type hg -R "D:/iProjects/project/" --cwd "D:/iProjects/project/" locate -r tip it works welll....

but if you notice in the error message it says An error occurred when trying to access the repository: No such file or directory - hg -R "D:/iProjects/project/" --cwd "D:/iProjects/project/" locate -r tip

maybe there is an extra dash between word directoryy and hg.... I don't know.... Have you tried bitnami distribution?

Also, notice that I'm using bachslash rather than slash... because when I use slash and type

D:\iProjects\project

redmine adds an backslash and my path becomes

becomes D:\iProjects\project/

which is invalid....

So I used backslashs only.... it works in command prompt... but maybe it has problems if you execute that trough ruby?

Hope this helps you to help me :)

I'll take it that there is no solution for this yet....

it's a pitty

The issue is that the trailing / gets added to the target which is the string that is the repo path before hitting the function in mercurial_adapter.rb

Locate that, modify it and we'll be golden.

To support local/SMB repos on Windows systems, it would make more sense to add this trailing / in the adapters, instead of adding it to the string (the repo path) that's passed into the function in the adapter.

(wish i could edit my post... eh chem...)

Make that... there should be no addition (trailing characters) to the repo name, but either error handling for the missing trailing \ or / condition or a note added to the repository tab in settings.

In ..\redmine-0.8.4/lib/redmine/scm/adapters/abstract_adapter.rb

Original

        def target(path)
          path ||= ''
          base = path.match(/^\//) ? root_url : url
          shell_quote("#{base}/#{path}".gsub(/[?<>\*]/, ''))
        end

Here is some editing I've done to remove the trailing /

Patch

        def target(path)
          path ||= ''
          base = path.match(/^\//) ? root_url : url
        if "#{path}".length > 0
        shell_quote("#{base}/#{path}".gsub(/[?<>\*]/, ''))
        else
        shell_quote("#{base}".gsub(/[?<>\*]/, ''))
        end
        end

Oops... guess what... the trailing / doesn't matter.

Verify that the user running ruby.exe has access to the SMB path.

Is there anyone actualy using Windows + Bitnami + Redmine?

Thanks

Haral,

What user is running ruby.exe? (if you'd like run tasklist /v on the server where redmine resides and post the output)

Does this user have file-system security access (NTFS folder/file access) to the repo? (if you'd like run cacls d:\iProjects\n????r\.hg\dirstate , obviously replacing the ???? with the proper path, on the server where redmine resides and post the output)

I've never heard of bitnami. Is that a hosted redmine solution?

Thanks,

Matt

Hi Matt,

I will do this in the evening.. I don't have access to my machine at the moment...

http://bitnami.org/ provides redmine installation out of box.... If you could install this on your windows machine... you could be able to reproduce the problem.

Tell me how did it go...

Thanks

hi matt, we are using (trying to) native installer for windows platform... Very weird problem isn't it?

Thanks for your reply
