Authors CurseForge

Not until the SVN::Web author has a chance to add it. I won't be getting into another project like that-- i can't afford it =)

After wrestling for a bit last night, the SVN::Web is back up and running, with timestamps intact (they weren't working last night):

http://svn.wowace.com/svnweb/index.cgi/root/

Delete everythign in the folder except the .svn folder and update.  ALternatively, re-checkout the distribution.

Now I get "Failed to add file 'blahblah\Squishy.xml': object of the same name is already scheduled for addition".
And there's no "checkout" I can do.

SVN is indeed so easy *cry*

Edit:
OK, I've deleted everything in the folder (.svn as well), and I then could do the CheckOut, which went fine... *whew* :]
Thanks for the tips and sorry about that, I can be a slow learner...

We can add it as a "requirement", but there's no way to enforce it. I'd just put a plea out to the authors to describe their addons somewhere.

I personally try to make the first commit note for any of my mods look like this:

SuperAmazeoMod - Initial Submission
- Plays your game for you, no thought required

If you just browse the svn you don't see any commitment notes ;9

I'm not sure if you can do something about that but the rss feature from the web interface is somewhat broken:

<item rdf:about="/svnweb/index.cgi/root/revision?rev=4804">
&#8722;
	<title>
4804 - SmartRes v2.0: Removed old Externals (Ace1 Externals)
</title>
<link>/svnweb/index.cgi/root/revision?rev=4804</link>
&#8722;
	<description>
SmartRes v2.0: Removed old Externals (Ace1 Externals)
</description>
<dc:creator>kyahx</dc:creator>
<dc:date>1970-01-01T00:00:00</dc:date>
</item>

as you can see the date is way off... it's not 1970 anymore and the <link> is relative so you can't click on it if you use a rss reader ;)

The relative link is being fixed. I'm not sure why the date is off.

I've never had any major issues with the SVN, using Tortoise.

Over the past couple days, I can't update anything, I keep getting the errors:

"PROPFIND request failed on '/root'"
"PROPFIND of '/root': could not connect to server (http://svn.wowace.com)

any suggestions? I've completely uninstalled TortoiseSVN, rebooted numerous times, checked settings on my router, amongst many other things that may be of significance. Still seeing the same issues.


after some testing, access to anything at http://svn.wowace.com/ seems broken. Someone made a booboo.

generally that means that for some reason the server is down.

Aye, my ISP was having issues last night that caused some downtime.

Sorry if the question is dumb.
If I import a project into the SVN trunk, does the revision starts at 1 (from the svn manual) ?

From the svn logs I see most of the 'initial commit' have a revision starts at like 1xxx. Does that mean those projects are added by 'commiting a change to the parent folder' and not 'importing a new project'?

What I mean was, if I am to upload my ParserLib to SVN, should I:

- Check out the whole /root/trunk, add ParserLib to /root/trunk/ParserLib, then commit the change of /root/trunk

OR

- Import ParserLib folder to /root/trunk ?

Commit numbers are univesal throughout the repo... we only use one repo. So there's only one commit r1 and only one r4400

Oh and you should "Import ParserLib folder to /root/trunk "

Hi,

i'm trying to checkout a couple of addon folders but all i get is the folder ".svn" with it's sub-folders but nothing else. the download stops after creating those folders. i tried tortoise and other clients but i get the same reactions. i even turned of my virus scanner and my firewall. do i need some kind of athentification. i have always been a "bleeding edge" addict and would like to use the most recent versions of the addons. can anyone give me a hint what i'm doing wrong when checking out?

are you using kaspersky antivirus ? then disable it, at least the web-protection-modul.
SVN is using the http protocol, but extensions anti virus programs don't understand (and block)

/edit
jeah thx dafire that solved the problem and now i can try out all those wonderful addons ^^

I keep getting the following error on several different mods as I try to update:

svn: REPORT request failed on '/root/!svn/vcc/default'
svn: Cannot replace a directory from within

Edit:

D:\Games\World of Warcraft\Interface\AddOns>svn up fubar-*
svn: REPORT request failed on '/root/!svn/vcc/default'
svn: Cannot replace a directory from within

Edit:

I removed the fubar-compat folders and rechecked the existing one out. The problem has gone away. Did someone like delete a second folder by that name? I swaer I had two, and there's only one on the SVN.

same. also SVN is the slowest thing i've ever dealt with. Having 100MBit connection im feeling myself like on 9600 modem. Even connection to SVN takes a shitload of time :(
Any hope it can be improved in any way in any future?
