[viewvc-users] setting RCSINIT variable

Hi,

 

Whatever information I could gather from forums and FAQs, I found a
solution to the error I was seeing:

 

"Error: Rlog output ended early. Expected RCS file
"/AllRepo/CVSROOT/CVSROOT/checkoutlist,v""
 
Solution:
- If you see ViewVC errors like
 
   Error parsing rlog output. Expected RCS file "c:\cvsroot\dir\file,v",
found "c:\cvsroot\dir\RCS/file,v"
 
it's because your RCS utilities don't recognize the RCS file suffix and
are treating all files specified on the command line like working copies
even when they end in ",v". You can fix this by including the following
string in your RCSINIT environment variable:
 
    -x,v
 
Important: You may need to reboot your computer before the environment
variable has an effect. See "Changes made to..." in the TROUBLESHOOTING
section.
 

 

But I'm not able to locate where to set this variable. I am using viewvc
1.0.8 version and trying to integrate it with CVS (version 1.11.20) on
Linux system. Any information would be helpful.

 

 

Regards,

Himanshu
