Moved to a new Subversion server....
I've moved to a new Subversion server and now my viewvc configuration no
longer works with Jira and the Subversion plug-in.
I'm making the assumption that since the Jira server did not change that
it must be on the Subversion and/or viewvc config side.
I have looked at my viewvc.conf file and it is configured the same as the
old server (except for path changes). I am not sure how to troubleshoot
this. Any help is greatly appreciated.
My viewvc.conf file is a bit long (with all of the comments) if there is
any particular part you need to see, please let me know and I will
cut/paste it here. Thanks much.

That is where the viewvc.cgi file is sitting;

ScriptAlias take the matching 1st argument found in the URL and maps it
to the 2nd argument in the filesystem as well as specifying that it is
executable. If it is commented out it obviously isn't going to work -
and the filesystem location specified has to match the actual location
of the file which doesn't seem to be the case.
ScriptAlias directives also apply to intermediate directories, so your
entry of:
ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ "/var/www/cgi-bin/"
means that a url of:
/cgi-bin/viewvc.cgi
would execute /var/www/cgi-bin/viewvc.cgi, which is where I though you
said you put the file.

Did you upgrade Apache too? /var/www/html is the default DocumentRoot for Apache 2.0 while /use/local/apach2/htdocs is the default for Apache 2.2. If you have, there might be other differences in the configuriation that makes your ViewVC not to work.

I asked about the symlink because the error that I keep seeing in the error log file is:
[Tue Sep 01 07:30:40 2009] [error] [client 20.6.191.231] File does not exist: /var/www/html/viewvc
This whole viewvc configuration is confusing to me.
/var/www/html is what my DocumentRoot is configured to. I set it to that because on my old svn server the viewvc config file had its DocumentRoot set there.
I wonder if I create a symlink, similar to yours, if that would resolve my issue and make my viewvc work.

The svnstat directory is the one that contains the statistics created by SVNStat, or maybe it was StatSVN. They are still there but we don't really use them.
You mean the sym link to viewvc-1.1.1? Well, I didn't read it anywhere. I just thought that if I had configured apache to work with a sym-link then I wouldn't have to change any configuration if I upgrade ViewVC. Or if I want to have two versions of it I just need to change the link and not the configuration.

Thank you.
What is that svnstat directory that is under /usr/local/apache2/htdocs/?
How did you know to create that symbolic link?

I have attempted to set the Script Alias to various paths;
ScriptAlias /viewvc "/var/www/cgi-bin/"
ScriptAlias /viewvc /var/www/cgi-bin/viewvc.cgi
and
ScriptAlias /viewvc /usr/local/viewvc-1.0.7/bin/cgi/viewvc.cgi

Is the file, viewvc, that the error references the same as viewvc.cgi? If so why does it not include the .cgi suffix in the error message?
Does anyone have an httpd.conf file example, with viewvc configured, that I can take a look at?

Apache has not parsed your ScriptAlias and is still looking at the
DocumentRoot.
> Is the file, viewvc, that the error references the same as viewvc.cgi?
No, the error_log message should have the file name after translations.

Either you haven't restarted Apache, there is some reason it isn't
seeing your ScriptAlias in the right context, or you have some other
conflicting entry.

The 2nd parameter to the ScriptAlias directive should be the actual
location of the file. Once you have fixed that, either the application
should execute or you should get a different error message in the log file.

So, where is viewvc.cgi -- in /var/www/cgi-bin like you said earlier
or in /usr/local/viewvc-1.0.7/bin/cgi as your ScriptAlias directives
above suggest?
It is in both locations. Somewhere, some document said to copy it from
the installation directory to my working cgi-bin directory. But then a
doc that I received earlier today had the ScriptAlias pointing to the
viewvc.cgi file that was in the installation home directory.

1. The Script Alias is commented out:
ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ "/var/www/cgi-bin/"
ScriptAlias /viewvc /usr/local/viewvc-1.0.7/bin/cgi/viewvc.cgi
ScriptAlias /query /usr/local/viewvc-1.0.7/bin/cgi/query.cgi
2. I believe that it is in the global section of the conf file. I simply
copied the ScriptAlias line that was in the original file, uncommented and
made changes as necessary.
3. I don't understand the last part of your comment.

The ScriptAlias directive is not taking effect. Is it uncommented and
in the global section of the httpd.conf file? You probably can still
use /viewvc.cgi to access it with the DocumentRoot changed, or
/cgi-bin/viewvc.cgi if you have the usual ScriptAlias for /cgi-bin.

Assuming that /var/www/cgi-bin/viewvc.cgi exists and has suitable
permissions, you should not still be getting an error message that
/viewvc does not exist. Is that still what the error message says?

Then you may want to ask in a ViewVC support venue for additional
assistance. I've never set up ViewVC so all I can point to is the
install documentation.

Not sure why I had that comments out of my httpd.conf. I uncommented the

According to the install documentation
http://viewvc.tigris.org/source/browse/*checkout*/viewvc/trunk/INSTALL
you also need the following directive:
ScriptAlias /viewvc /var/www/cgi-bin/viewvc.cgi
You may want to read through the rest of the install document and see
if there's anything else you need to do.

My httpd.conf file has the following entry:
#
# "/usr/local/apache2/cgi-bin" should be changed to whatever your
ScriptAliased
# CGI directory exists, if you have that configured.
#
#<Directory "/usr/local/apache2/cgi-bin">
<Directory "/var/www/cgi-bin">
AllowOverride None
Options None
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
And within /var/www/cgi-bin/ directory is a viewvc.cgi file. Is that the
same as the viewvc file that is mentioned in the error?

Then perhaps it is handled via an Apache Alias directive. What kind of
Apache directives did you set up on the new server for ViewVC?

I installed it fresh. I did not copy it from the old server.

I tried again this morning and there is the same error in the log file, so
this seems to be the issue. I don't have a viewvc file in my
/var/www/html directory. However, I checked my old server and there is
not one there either. So, I am confused. I don't recall the viewvc
install directions telling me to copy a viewvc file to this location.

Did you install viewvc again or just copy it? The viewvc.cgi script has paths
to its config and libraries so that might be a source of problems. Do the
webserver error logs contain any useful information?

New hardware was put in place, and the OS installed. I then installed and
configured Subversion. Then I moved all of my Subversion repositories from
the old server over to the new server. Once that was complete the alias
was moved from the old server to the new server. Jira was configured with
the alias name, rather than the actual server hostname, so the config
files did not need to be changed. I believe that I made all of the
necessary changes within ViewVC, but that is the portion that I am not
sure about and the reason for my post. Thanks.

Explain "moved to a new server".

Jira?

I don't see the SVN commits in Jira and if I try to access the url:
http://lssvn.fcg.com/viewvc I get the following error.
Oops! This link appears to be broken.
I can still access the old server's url successfully.

I'm making the assumption that since the Jira server did not change that
it must be on the Subversion and/or viewvc config side.
I have looked at my viewvc.conf file and it is configured the same as the
old server (except for path changes). I am not sure how to troubleshoot
this. Any help is greatly appreciated.
My viewvc.conf file is a bit long (with all of the comments) if there is

There is an alias for this particular server. That alias name was set up
in the Jira configuration files. When the new subversion server was set up
and the repositories moved, the alias was moved as well. So the Jira
configuration files would not need to be changed.
What is not working:
I don't see the SVN commits in Jira and if I try to access the url:
http://lssvn.fcg.com/viewvc I get the following error.

If you moved to a new host (as opposed to upgrading the same host with a new
server), then I believe you need to change the settings at the Jira side.
