RE: post-commit hook completely fails

Hi Anthony,

Couple of tests you can perform to narrow the problem.

1) place a "exit 0" at the top of your hook file.
2) keep moving the "exit 0" down the file till you can reproduce the
error.

I suspect your script is failing with a syntax error, which returns a
non-zero to subversion server.

Thanks
Lakshman

Subject: post-commit hook completely fails

I've done all I can to diagnose this, and I can't figure it out. I've
set up hooks just fine on at least two other different systems, but here
nothing works.

So I create a test repository:

$ uname -a
Linux maniac 2.6.18-hardened #3 SMP Thu Mar 15 23:20:05 EDT 2007 x86_64
AMD Sempron(tm) Processor 2800+ AuthenticAMD GNU/Linux $ grep User
/etc/apache2/httpd.conf User apache $ cd /tmp $ svnadmin create svn $
sudo chown -R apache:apache svn $ sudo chmod -R og+w svn $ cd svn/hooks/
$ cat > post-commit #!/bin/bash /bin/true $ chmod 777 post-commit

And I set it up via apache:

<VirtualHost 65.111.171.224:80>
         ServerName svn2
         DocumentRoot /tmp
         ErrorLog /tmp/error_log
         CustomLog /tmp/access combined

         <Directory /tmp>
                 Order allow,deny
                 Allow from all
         </Directory>

         <Location />
                 DAV svn
                 SVNPath /tmp/svn
         </Location>
</VirtualHost>

And then:

$ svn co http://svn2/ test
Checked out revision 0.
$ cd test/
$ touch x
$ svn add x
A x
$ svn ci -m -
Adding x
Transmitting file data .
Committed revision 1.

Warning: 'post-commit' hook failed with error output:

What else can I do? It's completely failing. If I completely remove
the post-commit file, it runs cleanly, but if *anything* is there, it
fails with no message.
