Re: how come post-commit script not triggered to email commitnotifications

Are you sure apache is running as a root user? This is usually a big
no-no. I think apache is usually started as root, but then changes the
process user and group to what you define in httpd.conf.

Also what protocol are you using from eclipse? i.e. what does the
repository url start with?
