Help a Brazilian Student...

[Eduardo Gonçalves <in...@gmail.com>]

Hi guys!

My name is Eduardo.

I am a student of bachelor's degree course in computer science.

I am doing my completion of course work and am having problems with SVN.

I need to run the SVN through a PHP script.

I am working on a Windows XP operating system and the IIS web server.

The problem occurs when running the excerpt from source illustrated below:

"
*echo "".exec("svn commit file:///D:/tcc/repository/project/")."";
echo "".exec("svn update file:///D:/tcc/repository/project/")."";*
"
There is absolutely nothing in return. I do not know where I am committing
errors. Did you know tell me?

Other information: running these commands in the command line, I get message
that the version of SVN installed on my computer is outdated to run such
commands and it is requested that I update the version of SVN, but the
version I have now is the most updated.

I count on the help of you ...

Sincerely ...

Eduardo.

Right. You also need to be in the working copy for the commit or  
update to work, or supply the working copy path as the argument to  
the command. And the reason you're not seeing any output in PHP is  
that you're not requesting to get the stderr output, which is where  
errors will be printed. Also, exec only returns the last line of  
output; you probably want all the output. Considering all these  
things, I recommend something like:

<?php

$wcpath = '/path/to/workingcopy';
$cmd = 'svn update ' . escapeshellarg($wcpath) . ' 2>&1';
$output = array();
exec($cmd, $output, $error);
#if ($error != 0) {
	echo implode("\n", $output) . "\n";
#}

?>

Usually you would only need to look at the output in the case when  
the return code is nonzero, but in the case of "svn update" with an  
invalid path, it will say "Skipped '/path/to/workingcopy'" and will  
still return 0. So I wanted to make sure you see such output.

First, you will be more likely to get responses if you use an
applicable Subject line.

Second, 'svn commit' and 'svn update' both apply to working copies,
e.g. a local working directory created when you run 'svn checkout'.
Your example makes it look like you're trying to apply them to a
repository.  Once checked out, the working copy knows the URL from
which it was checked out: you don't specify it on the command line.

You should run all your commands from the command line and verify that
they really do what you want.
