Fossil SCM

Hi,

I've just compiled Fossil under Solaris. Just some minor warnings. Everything works like advertised, but I'm getting "server says: server loop" when trying to sync. Went thru documentation, but couldn't find the reason. Ady idea?

Regards,

Krzysztof

So you have a repsoitory on the Solaris box. Was it new or a clone? And which repository are you trying to sync with.

Actually, it might be a good idea if you attached your fossil command lines so we can see how you might have got to that message.

Hi,

Set up was as follows: 1. Compiling the source 2. Creating new repository [fossil new test] 3. Have opened a new process with [fossil server test] and initially set it up. 4. I've created a folder : [files] containing some test files a b c d 5. I've opened repository [fossil open test] 6. Added the files: fossil add a 7. I've checked them in [fossil ci] 8. I'm getting the error message when trying to sync, pull or push. error (warning?) is : server says: server loop.

I can work with repository locally, without using web to review it, but sync over http is sooo tempting :)

best regards,

Krzysztof

BTW. Great piece of software.

Hello Krzysztof,

excuse my stupidity, but are you saying you try to sync/pull/push that very local repository with itself? If this is so, what do you expect from that action?

Try this setting:

1 with a running fossil server on your repository test ... 2 Goto another directory that does not contain you repository test 3 Execute fossil clone cloned_test

Now you may sync/pull/push between test and cloned_test as you deem joyful :-)

Ciao, chin.

Sorry for my ignorance :) I was obviously trying to do the impossible. It works great.

best regards to you all.
