AW: AW: checkout fails due to missing temp dir

Hi, I tried to dissect the algorithm to find out why it cannot find a temporary folder. This is how it works: All he's trying to do is to create a file in several folders. First in folders from the evironment variables $TMP, $TEMP and $TMPDIR - none of the is set on my system. Then the algorithm goes through hard coded paths: "/tmp", "/usr/tmp", "/var/tmp". To create a file, he tries this: char *path = apr_pstrcat(p, temp_dir, "/apr-tmp.XXXXXX", NULL); if (apr_file_mktemp(&dummy_file, path, 0, p) == APR_SUCCESS) Lokks like in none of the folders this functions can create the file. Two questions: 1) Which user needs the rights to create the file: The user the Apache is running under? Or the one I logon at the DAV server? 2) the variable p (apr_pool_t): can it be invalid by a corrupted APR installation or anything else? Is there another way to get more information out of the functions? Should I add my own output and rebuild?

It returns APR_EGENERAL (20014) on failure to find a suitable directory. The algorithm looks pretty straightforward. Let us know what assumption is failing. ___________________________________________________________ Der frühe Vogel fängt den Wurm. Hier gelangen Sie zum neuen Yahoo! Mail: http://mail.yahoo.de
