Re: [viewvc-users] MySQL DB is not getting updated

Ravi, .EXE files have a fixed and non-human-readable format.  You can't just
throw a batch script on your server with a .EXE file extension and expect
stuff to work.  You need to name your hook "post-commit.bat".

I found that all the CVS system related files are now placed under the folder CVSROOT after migration to SVN. I used the file 'loginfo' which I found under CVSROOT\ folder in the migrated repository. Is there a different location that I need to look for the logfile on SVN system?

I can't tell if by "the cvs" you mean Concurrent Versions System (CVS), which is one of the two version control systems that ViewVC can connect to; of if you meant "the vcs" as a shorthand for "the version control system".

If so the query.cgi was not displaying the already existing cvs logs that were migrated to subversion. Also, if I run it again I am sure it will display the new checkins that were made to the subversion server.
