Your problem may be due to svn expecting interactive input. A STAF
process supports specifying a stdin file containing input for the command.
Also, you probably need to specify the shell mode, e.g. <command
mode="'shell"> to run the command that way. You may also want to specify
the SAMECONSOLE option, <console use="'same'"/>
Note that STAX provides a <timer> element that you can use as a wrapper
which defines a task for which time control is provided. The timer element
contains a single task element and runs the task for a specified duration,
stopping the task at the end of the specified duration (if the task is
still running). For example, the following timer element wraps a
<process> element and allows it to run for up to 10 minutes:
<timer duration="'10m'">
<sequence>
<process>
<location>machineName</location>
<command mode="'shell'">
'svn co %s %s --username autotest --password hello1234 ' %
(teamScriptPath, teamToDir)
</command>
<workdir>to_dir</workdir>
<stderr mode="'stdout'"/>
<returnstdout/>
<console use="'same'"/>
</process>
<log message="1">
'RC: %s, STAFResult: %s, Process Stdout/Stderr:\n%s' % (RC,
STAFResult, STAXResult)
</log>
</sequence>
</timer>

Re: [staf-users] subversion checkout
Yes, I have ever come across this problem
For example, the STAX script below is always hang
<!--2,svn update team script-->
<process>
<location>'%s' % machineName</location>
<command>'svn co %s %s --username autotest --password hello1234 '
%(params[3][machineName]['team_script_path'],params[3][machineName]['team_to_dir'])</command>
<workdir>'%s' %params[3][machineName]['to_dir'] </workdir>
<returnstdout/>
</process>
May be the svn need some interactive actions with users, it will always
hang without no response.
Is there a timeout option for config the SVN operation or for STAX Process
? if timeout, the STAX will execute the next?

No, we don't know of any issues with SP2 for Vista.
Per the following note in the STAF User's Guide, try specifying the
SAMECONSOLE option on your PROCESS START requset to see if that makes a
difference.
1. On Windows systems, if you are redirecting stdin/out/err and are
not using SAMECONSOLE, it is recommended that you redirect all three
input/output streams. If one or two streams are redirected, but not all
three, the non-redirected streams will not be available to the
application. For example, if stdout and stderr are redirected, but not
stdin, then the application will receive errors if it tries to read from
standard input. As another example, if stdin and stdout are redirected,
but not stderr, then you will not see any of the standard error output
displayed in the console window. This problem only occurs when using
NEWCONSOLE, which is the default. You may freely redirect any combination
of stdin, stdout, and stderr when using SAMECONSOLE. This problem is due
to a known limitation in the Windows API.
Is STAFProc being run as an Administrator on this Windows Vista machine?
Can you run any other command via a STAF PROCESS START request via on this
Windows machine, such as notepad ?

[staf-users] subversion checkout
I have one machine where the command:
d:\>staf local process start shell command "svn checkout <my
server>/trunk/Test d:/whargarbl" wait STDERRTOSTDOUT RETURNSTDOUT
does a successful checkout, and another machine where the same command
starts an svn and a STAF process, but both just hang, using 0 CPU time
even after a few minutes.
Same machine hardware(dual xeon), architecture(x64) and OS (vista
business) except the one that works has SP1, and the one that doesn't
has SP2. Both are running STAF 3.3.4. Both have all firewalls turned
off. Both machines have trust level 5 set for themselves. I have
administrator privileges on both machines.
On the machine that isn't returning from the staf call, I can make the
same call directly on the command line( i.e. svn checkout
<myserver>/trunk/Test d:/fbxrd) and it will work just fine. So it's
just when I wrap the command in a STAF process call that it isn't
working.
Do you know of any issues with SP2 for Vista? Could there be a
configuration option I missed somewhere?
Thanks,
Daria
