JCVSlet...

[Brian Nelson <brian@PocketScience.com>]

I am working with the JCVSlet, and it seems to be locking up when I am
checking out a module.  I have a couple questions...

1) what permissions does the JCVSlet projects respective directories have to
have?
2) Why doesnt the servlet check out the tree automatically on load?  Does it
do it periodically, or shoud I run cvs VIA a cron job?

        <blockquote> \
        Welcome to the jCVS Servlet page. \
        <p> \
        JCVS is a suite of Java packages that provides a 100% Java \
        client/server protocol implementation, Swing based \
        GUI client, and servlet based web service for CVS. \
        JCVS was originally authored in 1996. In 1999, the jCVS Servlet \
        was authored, which allows jCVS to present any CVS repository \
        on the internet in a web browser. \
        <p> \
        This site is using jCVS Servlet release <b>{1}</b>.\
        <p> \
        This page presents a cvs repository collection. From this page \
        you should ultimately be able to browse, or link to a browser of, \
        virtually any publicly available CVS repository on the web. \

I am running Apache 1.3.6 with JServ 1.0 on FreeBSD 3.1-STABLE

Here is the screen it locks up at:
-----------------------------------------------------------
URL: http://pip/servlets/JCVSlet/update/cvs/mail
HOME / Projects / Mail 


Update of ' ./ '

Opening server '2401@jupiter'... 
Authenticating 'brian@jupiter'... 
Negotiating cvs protocol... 
Sending command request, 'update'... 
Reading server response... 
----------------------------------------------------------
The interesting part of this is that the module name is mail, but it is
updating "./"

After this point, apache has to be restarted for anyting to work.
