Problem with CVS-Download

Hi,

when I try to update the NeoOffice/J-Sourcecode via "make", I get the following:

[SchlesisPowerbook:~/SW-Entwicklung/NeoJ/neojava] thomas% make
mkdir -p "build"
cd "build" ; cvs -d ":pserver:anoncvs@anoncvs.openoffice.org:/cvs" co -r "OOO_STABLE_1_PORTS" "all"
cvs [checkout aborted]: connect to anoncvs.openoffice.org:2401 failed: No route to host
make: *** [build.oo_checkout] Error 1

The DNS-Resolution seems to work:

[SchlesisPowerbook:~/SW-Entwicklung/NeoJ/neojava] thomas% ping anoncvs.openoffice.org
PING anoncvs.openoffice.org (64.125.132.237): 56 data bytes

Why doesn't the CVS-Update work?

Can you connect to the anoncvs server manually? One of the things that may be the case is that openoffice.org's anoncvs is down. Try running the following in a Terminal:

If you do a pull of the latest NeoJ sources as of, well, right now (my timestamp is from PST/Santa Barbara, CA USA...yes, I live in paradise), you'll notice the name of the CVS server is now "anoncvs.services.openoffice.org". To properly get NeoJ to build from scratch, you wil need to cvs login before you do make.

CVS passwords are stored in your home directory. Even though anoncvs's password is empty, you still need to login once in a different shell for the cvs password file to be created.

1) Open a new shell
2) setenv CVSROOT :pserver:anoncvs@anoncvs.services.openoffice.org:/cvs
3) cvs login
4) Press Return at the password prompt (e.g. empty password)
5) Open a new shell
6) setenv CVSROOT :pserver:anoncvs@anoncvs.neooffice.org:/cvs
7) cvs login
Cool

Use "anoncvs" as the password for NeoOffice CVS server.
9) cvs co NeoOfficeJ
10) cd neojava
11) make

That should do the trick!

Thomas,

I noticed that OpenOffice.org changed the name of their anonymous CVS server a few days ago (why they do this I'll never know) so I updated the build instructions at http://www.planamesa.com/neojava/build.html and updated the CVSROOT in neojava/makefile.

If you are going to build NeoOffice/J, I would recommand checking out the latest NeoOffice/J sources as there are a lot of bug fixes that have made since the source tarball was posted.

FWIW, OpenOffice.org's hosting site, CollabNet, has been stuck at a years-outdated version of their hosting/collaboration softwrae package due to Sun, or simply lack of time/funding. I doubt an upgrade would be the reason for the name shift, but it would definitely be welcome Wink

Hello,

thanks for your replies. Now the "make" is running Wink

Thomas,

I committed a bunch of fixes to the build. If you are building the lastest code (i.e. from the HEAD of the CVS tree), you might want to check out http://trinity.neooffice.org/modules.php?name=Forums&file=viewtopic&t=42 for how to update a rebuild without rebuilding all of OOo.

Hi Patrick,

after a day of compiling on my 1GHz-PB I've completed by first self-compiled NeoJ Wink
