Problem with "Import into Jazz" from CVS
I'm trying to import a CVS project into RTC and get the following error:
java.lang.IllegalStateException: Contents for ###################### were not fetched at com.ibm.team.filesystem.ccvs.internal.CVSImporter.fetchFiles(CVSImporter.java:441) at com.ibm.team.filesystem.ccvs.internal.CVSImporter.walk(CVSImporter.java:277) at com.ibm.team.filesystem.ccvs.internal.CVSImporter.gatherInformation(CVSImporter.java:262) at com.ibm.team.filesystem.ccvs.internal.CVSImporter.createChangeSetArchive(CVSImporter.java:219) at com.ibm.team.filesystem.ccvs.internal.CVSImporter.createChangeSetArchive(CVSImporter.java:182) at com.ibm.team.scm.client.importz.internal.CreateArchiveOperation.run(CreateArchiveOperation.java:32) at com.ibm.team.scm.client.importz.ui.ImportOperation.createArchive(ImportOperation.java:122) at com.ibm.team.scm.client.importz.ui.ImportOperation.filesystemRun(ImportOperation.java:93) at com.ibm.team.filesystem.ccvs.ui.internal.CVSImportOperation.filesystemRun(CVSImportOperation.java:86) at com.ibm.team.filesystem.ui.operations.FileSystemUIOperation.repositoryRun(FileSystemUIOperation.java:43) at com.ibm.team.repository.rcp.ui.operations.RepositoryOperation.run(RepositoryOperation.java:42) at com.ibm.team.repository.rcp.ui.operations.JobRunner.run(JobRunner.java:205) at com.ibm.team.repository.rcp.ui.operations.JobRunner$1.run(JobRunner.java:62) at org.eclipse.core.internal.jobs.Worker.run(Worker.java:55) Does anybody has an idea what's going wrong here?

Michael,
What CVS server version are you using? The method used to fetch the contents is not compatible with CVSNT. If you're not using CVSNT, you could try using the cvs2svn utility to create an SVN dump file and then import the SVN dump file into Jazz (unfortunately, the utility isn;t compatible with CVSNT either).

Michael,
thanks for your quick answer. No, I'm not using CVSNT. Fortunately, the source code is available so I was able to debug into the problem quite easily. In com.ibm.team.filesystem.ccvs.internal.CVSImporter#fetchFiles I found some problematic code: CVSTag tag = new CVSTag(revision, CVSTag.VERSION); //CVSTag tag = CVSUtil.getTag(remoteResource); CVSUtil.retryCommand(CHECKOUT, session, Command.NO_GLOBAL_OPTIONS, new LocalOption[] {Command.DO_NOT_RECURSE, Update.makeTagOption(tag)}, (String[])foldersToFetch.toArray(new String), null, subProgress.newChild(1)); the problem is that the checkout command gets the local options "-r 1.x" from Update.makeTagOption(tag). When I try this from the cvs command line, e.g. "cvs checkout -l -r 1.3 <module>" I also get an error saying "cvs : Numeric directory tags are not allowed." At least for my special situation ;-) a solution would be if the first line above would be changed to CVSTag tag = new CVSTag(); because then Update.makeTagOption(tag) would give "-A" option which does work on the command line. I'm sure there are good reasons to do it the other way, and maybe I'm doing something wrong, do you have another workaround? Thanks, Michael Michael Valenta wrote: Michael, |

Removing the -r option will make it always fetch the latest version of all the files, so you will not be getting any history, just multiple copies of the same latest contents. - Dmitry |

sorry it seems to be CVSNT as you suggested. I was confused by the fact Yes. The only things you can try is use the SVN importer to generate an SVN dump file (as Michael Suggested), or convert to using the real CVS server. - Dmitry |

Dmitry,
sorry it seems to be CVSNT as you suggested. I was confused by the fact that org.eclipse.team.internal.ccvs.core.client.Session#isCVSNT() method returned false when I debugged it. So I assume, I cannot use the "Import int Jazz" functionality ? Thanks, Michael Dmitry Karasik wrote: On Tue, 15 Jul 2008 23:38:10 +0200, Michael Haeberlen wrote: |
