RE: [viewvc-users] error with viewvc 1.1.17

Hmm,
I checked that section and I have this:
diff = "C:\Program Files\CollabNet\Subversion Client"

I looked in there, and did find a diff program.
is it possible that its a problem because its 64 bit subversion client?
i think viewvc is 32bit

Omar,

Your problem is that when ViewVC went to go launch the required GNU diff
program, it couldn't find it.  Did you set the "diff" configuration variable
in the [utilities] section of your viewvc.conf file?  If not, and if
"diff.exe" isn't locatable in your system's %PATH%, ViewVC will raise the
Exception you see.
