I am trying to use the project and cvs modules for my own project.

I have the cvs-to-sql.pl perl script setup and running from my cvs loginfo file.

However, I get an error indicating that the table cvs does not exist (which it does not)
in my database.

Can someone please tell me how to initially create the CVS tables in my database?

I have the following cvs module tables in my database, but evidently, it does not create
the tables for the script to write to.
cvs_accounts, cvs_files, cvs_messages, cvs_project_maintainers, cvs_projects, cvs_repositories

THanks!

OK, I now see from

http://cvs.drupal.org/viewcvs/drupal/contributions/modules/cvslog/cvs.my...

that the cvs table is no longer being used. I'm guessing that means that the
cvs-to-sql.pl script is now out of date?

ANy help in getting the cvs module working is greatly appreciated.
I think it's all OK except for the loginfo script.

THanks

Title: Creating initial CVS tables » cvs-to-sql.pl script is now out of date

yeah, i bet no one has touched that script in ages. :( we don't use it on drupal.org, we use a whole new set of scripts. i'd like to put a copy of the scripts we're currently using (which also handles the cvs access control stuff i recently added) into a subdirectory of the cvs module, so that folks can use those as the basis of what they need at their own site. i just have to get that concept cleared by dries, first. stay tuned.

Thanks, Derek,

I think that Drupal/project/cvs/viewcvs has the potential be a serious alternative to bugzilla and others. I've found it very difficult to integrate the others.

I'm very close to getting it all set up. If you publish the work you're doing, I'll be willing to test it.

i just commited the "xcvs" subdirectory in modules/cvslog (it's in HEAD and DRUPAL-4-7 now), and updated the various readme's, etc. i added a comment to cvs-to-sql.pl, too.
