show log issue
Hi,
I have been posting requests to sort a log issue for couple of week, My
problem is still not sorted out in my production box.But I think I am
somwhere near in sorting the issue in my test box, when I click show log my
log window shows some active changes like this.

The command looks OK to me. What error message did you receive?
The --force-log flag is not relevant to your problem. That is only
for when you want to supply the commit message in a file, and that
file is a part of your working copy (an unusual case).

I'll answer for completeness, but it's not relevant to your problem:
svn propedit --revprop -r N svn:log url://to/your/repository
where N is the revision number whose log message you want to edit.

No, and you don't need to put the path to your repository into the
hook script; it is passed that value on the command line in $1.

Yes, and by having the filename "pre-revprop-change".

No, the pre-revprop-change hook is now active. You just haven't done
anything (like trying to edit an old revision's properties) that
would trigger it.
But the pre-revprop-change hook is not relevant to your problem. That
is for if you want to change the properties on old revisions. But
you've told us that newly-created revisions are also missing these
properties. That is what we need to focus on fixing. Unfortunately I
have no idea what could make Subversion not record the log message
and date properties.

Sorry for giving the vague summary,
I just created a new text file in my local copy added it and committed it
using TSVN I and then tried the show log. From the cli I created a text file
and then committed using #svn commit --username mar --password ant
--force-log -m "testing." but I was not able to commit I don't know whether
the command was correct.I didn't find any manual for setting the revprops on
the old versions.
I have just added the path to my repos in the pre-revprop-change hook and my
user name to it, is there any other info which should be added to the
pre-revprop-change script? and does it get activated just by assigning
execute permission.
This is what I did, is there anything else which I should do to activate my
pre-revprop-change hook.
Thanks

Please always give a complete, exact transcript, rather than a summary
of what you did. A transcript means all the information, like what file
was committed, what log command you ran, etc. That makes things much
easier.
But in this case, making a new commit won't help. You have to set the
revprops on existing (old) revisions. Those are commits that have
already been made; making new commits won't change anything about the
old ones. This section of the TortoiseSVN manual may help:
http://tortoisesvn.net/docs/release/TortoiseSVN_en/tsvn-dug-showlog.html#tsvn-dug-showlog-4

Hi Karl,
Sorry to bother you again, I went through the two links you sent and some
other links got googling but still unable to get them.These are the things I
did
First I tried by just copying the pre-revprop-change.tmpl to
pre-revprop-change and assigned executable permission to the file and then I
did a commit and then then I tried svn log but still got the same out put

Then I copied all the tmpl files to files without the tmpl extension and
tried a commit from TSVN there I got the error
Commit
D:\New Folder (3)\New Folder
Commit failed (details follow):
Commit blocked by start-commit hook (exit code 1) with output:
/home/svn/BLE_REPOS/hooks/start-commit: line 61: commit-allower.pl: command
not found
As it said an error in commit-allower.pl I added user to the script and the
path to the repository but still I got the same error.
Then I removed all other scripts from the hooks director except the
pre-revprop-change and added the svn path and users to it but still getting
no extra output than the

older log.
As I am zero in scripting I didn't know what to do.
Kindly help me sort this issue.

You did what? I hope you did a "svnadmin dump" and then a "svnadmin
load" in order to move your repository...
You cannot normally move a repository between different OSs and
different architectures by simply moving the repository directories.
There are formatting issues that can cause problems.
I wonder if this is why you're not getting the log messages and author names...

Thanks for the support,
I changed my repository from windows to linux a week back without any
reading of the svn book, that's the main reason for the issue.I will go
through the link and get back if I have any problem.
Thanks a lot

Hi Karl,
The repository is not public, it is not possible for me to make it public
even for testing at this point of time.Are you able to find any mistake I
doing? If needed I can give my work around step by step.

When you say "click" that means you must be using a GUI, right?
TortoiseSVN perhaps, or some other GUI? This list is for the core
Subversion libraries and the command-line client. Try "svn log your://
repository/url" and see if you get the same problem. If so, show us
the output, and tell us what version of Subversion you have and what
repository access protocol you're using and how the server is set up;
if not, ask on the mailing list for whatever GUI you're using.
