Installing Subversion v1.4.6 on RHEL 3
Hi all,
I have downloaded the latest version of subversion software and compiled
it as per instructions.
I want to test the installation so I issue the following command: (make
check) but it seems to hang on fs-test.
Running all tests in compat-test...success
Running all tests in config-test...success
Running all tests in diff-diff3-test...success
Running all tests in fs-test...
Anyone have a similar issue?.
Cheers
Ashok

Do you run this on a server without mouse and keyboard? If so, is your
APR compiled with /dev/random or /dev/urandom as the source for random
numbers? If it's /dev/random, then the tests hang on a drained random
device, waiting for new entropy.
On headless servers, it's generally a good idea to add a source of
randomness from - for example - harddisk activity, or to compile APR
with /dev/urandom, which is a non-blocking source of random numbers
(but weaker). Subversion just needs randomness and doesn't depend on
the strong randomness provided by /dev/random.
bye,
Erik.
