Anonymous CVS to sourceforge accounts doesn't work here [message #129061] Sun, 14 September 2003 11:20 Go to next message
Eclipse UserFriend
Hi all,

I wanted to access a sourcefoege account via anonymous cvs. However, I
failed to find the correct settings so that the files apear within the HEAD
folder once you open it.

An example is:

:pserver:anonymous@cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/eclipse-games

I leave the password empty and it seems that eclipse's validation of the
settings is fine. But cannot get any files from the account. Any hints?

I using eclipse 2.1.1 on WindowsXP. Thanks in advance.

Ciao,
Sebastian

Sourceforge CVS change policy for anonymous access
You try cvs from command line (or any cvs client on Win, I don't know for
Windows) - if you have a problem that is it
You have to try more times, but sourceforge anonymous cvs is almost
unusefull

regards

With WinCVS it works perfectly here.

It also works fine from Cygwin commandline (bash + cvs). Since others
are experiencing the same problem with eclipse, I made

https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=43187

Update for those not tracking the bug, the answer is that SF responds with
cvspserver instead of cvs. At the bottom of the properties page for the
repository location there is an option that defaults to "Expect the default
program name "cvs" in text message prefixes from this server". You need to
change that to "Expect a custom program name" and enter cvspserver in the
box.

The following information may also be helpful:

:-) It seems sourceForge has read this post and has changed the name to

As of the I20030925 Eclipse build, using a different name will no longer
cause a problem either.
