#1188 Couldn\'t open default trigger library and CvsNt 2.5.04

[Vivian De Smedt]

Dear Charly,

I started playing with TortoiseCvs 1.10.1 rc9 and rc10

Each time I try to perform and operation. e.g. cvs -d:local:C:/Cvs checkout projectA
I receive the message:
cvs checkout: Couldn't open default trigger library: No such file or directory.

When I perform the same operation on a command line CvsNT crash.

I think that the version of CvsNT (2.5.04.2471) that is shipped together with TortoiseCvs is buggy or at least not compatible with my repository (I should make test with others.)

If uninstall the CvsNT (2.5.04.2471) and install instead the latest stable version available on the site (2.5.03.2382) everything run smoothly.

So I'm not reporting a but in TortoiseCvs itself but rather a bug in its installer.

Is there a good reason to ship TortoiseCvs with the 2.5.04 version of CvsNT or could you imagine to ship it with the 2.5.03 version?

I'm fine with the solution I found but I'll be glad not being forced to explain that to my coworkers :-)

Kindest regards,
Vivian.

PS: I don't resit to tell you that TortoiseCvs is wonderful and that I love the way it improves.

Yes, this is a known bug in the CVSNT 2.5.04.2471 client installer, and it has been reported to the CVSNT maintainers.
The workaround is to install the 2.5.04.2471 server installer in addition.

The final 1.10.1 release will ship with another CVSNT version.

This has been fixed in the latest Release Candidate.

If you have the time and inclination, go to https://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=48103&package_id=82321 and install the most recent Release Candidate, then verify that the problem is indeed fixed.

Thank you for your comment. I did install the latest release candidate 1.10.1 RC11 and indeed the problem is gone :-)
Thanks for your support and thanks for TortoiseCvs which is nice and was the decisive piece to convince my coworker to use cvs.

Cheers,
Vivian.
