Add the Service to CVS - OPTIONAL.� + These steps take an existing OpenACS directory and add + it to a CVS + repository. +

  1. Create and set permissions on a subdirectory in the local cvs repository.

    [root@yourserver root]# mkdir /cvsroot/service0
    +[root@yourserver root]# chown service0.web /cvsroot/service0
    +[root@yourserver root]#
    +mkdir /cvsroot/service0
    +chown service0.web /cvsroot/service0
  2. Add the repository location to the user environment.

    [root@yourserver root]# su - service0
    +[service0@yourserver service0]$ emacs .bashrc

    Put this string into /home/service0/.bashrc:

    export CVSROOT=/cvsroot
    [service0@yourserver service0]$ exit
    +logout
    +
    +[root@yourserver root]#
  3. Import all files into cvs. In order to work on + files with source control, the files must be checked out + from cvs. So we will import, move aside, and then check + out all of the files. In the cvs import command, + service0 + refers to the cvs repository to use; it uses the CVSROOT + plus this string, + i.e. + /cvsroot/service0. + "OpenACS" is the vendor tag, and "openacs-5-0-0b4" is the + release tag. These tags will be useful in upgrading and + branching. -m sets the version comment.

    [root@yourserver root]# su - service0
    +[service0@yourserver service0]$ cd /web/service0
    +[service0@yourserver service0]$ cvs import -m "initial install" service0 OpenACS openacs-5-0-0b4
    +N service0/license.txt
    +N service0/readme.txt
    +(many lines omitted)
    +N service0/www/SYSTEM/flush-memoized-statement.tcl
    +
    +No conflicts created by this import
    +
    +[service0@yourserver service0]$
    +su - service0
    +cd /web/service0
    +cvs import -m "initial install" service0 OpenACS openacs-5-0-0b4

    Move the original directory to a temporary location, and check out the cvs repository in its place. If the service starts correctly, come back and remove the temporary copy of the uploaded files.

    [service0@yourserver service0]$ cd ..
    +[service0@yourserver web]$ mv service0 service0.orig
    +[service0@yourserver web]$ cvs checkout service0
    +cvs checkout: Updating service0
    +U service0/license.txt
    +(many lines omitted)
    +U service0/www/SYSTEM/dbtest.tcl
    +U service0/www/SYSTEM/flush-memoized-statement.tcl
    +[service0@yourserver web]$ exit
    +logout
    +
    +[root@yourserver web]#
    +cd ..
    +mv service0 service0.orig
    +cvs checkout service0
    +exit
