Re: [Codestriker-user] issue (probably configuration) with viewing complete old/new files

Hi Tom,

Just curious - are you running with Codestriker deployed under IIS or 
Apache?  I'd recommend Apache in plain CGI first.  IIS sometimes does 
weird things with executing processes.

Are there any messages in the apache error file?

What user does your apache process run as?  I would try running the 
equivalent perforce commands as that user.  I am guessing the command is 
hanging, perhaps prompting for some information.  If you setup the 
perforce environment for that user correctly, this prompting should go 
away.  The best way to do this, is to run the equivalent perforce commands 
to ensure they run correctly.

Codestriker is running commands like:

p4 -p hostname:port -u user -c client print -q filename#revision

Where the parameters are specified in your perforce repository string in 
your codestriker config file.  Try running this for an example file in 
your system.

Cheers,
David
