Eclipse problems with cvs at Sourceforge [message #275023]

Hi,
I am having problems using eclipse with a project on sourceforge. In the
CVS repositories view HEAD looks like this:
HEAD
/CVSROOT
/eclispewiki

If I open eclipse wiki I get this:
HEAD
/CVSROOT
/eclipsewiki
/CVSROOT
/eclipsewiki

Opening the second level eclipsewiki continues the recursion.

Before I post a bug I would like to check that this isn't a known problem
with sourceforge (not that I could find it).

Thanks,

Channing

Channing,

I am not awar of the issue. Could you follow the steps at the following
URL and post the results of performing the expansion. That will reveal
the trace of what the client and server are communicating. Since this
works in the general case, it is possible the SourceForge has modified
(or upgraded) their server and nehavior that the Repositories view
relies on may have changed.

Hi Michael,
I think I found the cause of my problem. I found this in the logs:

!MESSAGE An error occurred parsing file 'repositoriesView.xml'.
!STACK 0
org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: Illegal XML character: .
at org.apache.crimson.parser.InputEntity.fatal(InputEntity.java :1100)
at org.apache.crimson.parser.InputEntity.getc(InputEntity.java: 360)
at org.apache.crimson.parser.Parser2.getc(Parser2.java:3203)

I looked at the repositoriesView.xml and it seems to contain bad
characters:

<repository
id=":extssh:channingwalton@cvs.sourceforge.net :/cvsroot/eclipsewiki^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^ @ ">
</repository>

I deleted the odd characters and the problem went away. To confirm every
is ok I started with a fresh workspace and deleted the configuration
directory.

I don't know how those characters got there but its possible I cut and
pasted the address and cvsroot from my browser - I can't recall.

I'll see how it goes anyway, thanks for the help.
