Re: Hook script not running?

Hi,

Just some random thoughts on this one:

Since your pre-commit hook tries to write to the file 'log'... has the
apache user also write access to the directory? If it cannot write it..
it won't happen.

Also, have a look at the logs (apache errorlog if you access SVN via
apache).

Last but not least, try a script like this:
#!/bin/sh
exit 1

If your commit fails with exit level 1, you can be sure that the script
is fired of in the first place. If so, you can start building and
debugging the script you intend to run as a pre-commit.

Good luck!
