I've just compiled Fossil under Solaris. Just some minor warnings. Everything works like advertised, but I'm getting "server says: server loop" when trying to sync. Went thru documentation, but couldn't find the reason. Ady idea?

Regards,

Krzysztof

So you have a repsoitory on the Solaris box. Was it new or a clone? And which repository are you trying to sync with.

Actually, it might be a good idea if you attached your fossil command lines so we can see how you might have got to that message.

Hi,

Set up was as follows: 1. Compiling the source 2. Creating new repository fossil new test 3. Have opened a new process with fossil server test and initially set it up. 4. I've created a folder : files containing some test files a b c d 5. I've opened repository fossil open test 6. Added the files: [bad-link: fossil add a ]fossil add a (and so on for the rest of the test files) 7. I've checked them in fossil ci 8. I'm getting the error message when trying to sync, pull or push. error (warning?) is : server says: server loop.

I can work with repository locally, without using web to review it, but sync over http is sooo tempting :)

best regards,

Krzysztof

BTW. Great piece of software.

Hello Krzysztof,

excuse my stupidity, but are you saying you try to sync/pull/push that very local repository with itself? If this is so, what do you expect from that action?

Try this setting:

1. with a running fossil server on your repository test ...
2. Goto another directory that does not contain you repository test
3. Execute fossil clone <your URL here> cloned_test

Now you may sync/pull/push between test and cloned_test as you deem joyful :-)

Ciao, chin.

Sorry for my ignorance :) I was obviously trying to do the impossible. It works great.

best regards to you all.
