New issue 3433 by [email protected]: CVS file path stored
incorrectly in database
http://code.google.com/p/reviewboard/issues/detail?id=3433
What version are you running?
Reviewboard 2.0.2
RBTools 0.6
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Use rbt to post a new review with diffs from a file already committed in
CVS.
2. Look at the diffs in your outgoing review request in the web browser.
What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I expect to see the diff between the two files (as shown with a simple CVS
diff), but instead I get the following error:
There was an error displaying this diff.
The file 'home/cvsroot/tiger/code/include/support/Attic/PlatformSpecific.h'
(r1.2) could not be found in the repository
This may be a bug in the software, a temporary outage, or an issue with the
format of your diff.
Please try again, and if you still have trouble, contact support.
What operating system are you using? What browser?
Ubuntu 14.04 on the client
Ubuntu 12.04 on the server
Google Chrome browser.
Please provide any additional information below.
The issue appears to be that the path to the file is missing a leading '/'
when stored in diffset entry in the database (i.e. /home/cvsroot/...) .
When reviewboard gets the file list from the database and attempts to post
the diff, it can't find the original file, so it searches the CVS attic for
the file instead (and also can't find it).
We had been using reviewboard 1.6.5 recently with CVS and it seemed to work
fine.
I figured that I would post the issue here before I start digging into the
code too much myself.
