$Author and $Id keywords not resolving
Hi folks,
I can not get the $Author$ or $LastChangedBy$ keywords to resolve. I have successfully added the keyword properties to the file as proven by my $Id$ keyword resolving all components *except* the author name. What have done wrong in my configuration?
Here is how the file looks:
$Author: $
$LastChangedBy: $
$Id: t_dem.sas 8 2009-04-03 16:05:22Z $
I am running SVN 1.5 and TSVN 1.6 on Windows 2003 server.
Thank you for your help.
Tim

Indeed, as the $Id$ keyword should have author as it's latest bit, after
commit date. It's not there - then it's safe to assume that it was empty at
commit, meaning that repository is set for anonymous write access.
Install Apache :) Best choice for all your needs. Add mod_auth_sspi if you
want to authenticate against Windows users names. (Wish SVN could support
SSPI by itself)

The repository was setup to use basic authentication using the svn://<url> protocol with anonymous write access.
To quote the manual:
"...you will not know who has made changes to a repository, as the svn:author property will be empty."
So there you have it! I will switch over to a better authentication method.

I think you are on to something here. Perhaps the repository is set up for anonymous access. I will look into this and reply back later today.
Thank you for steering me to what is likely the solution.

Author & LastChangedBy are synonymous, so you're doing more work than
you need to there.
Are you authenticating to the repository? If you look at the logs for
the file, do you see an Author name listed there?

Andy,
svn:keywords has value:
Date Revision Author HeadURL Id LastChangedBy
I find it strange that all parts of Id are resolving execpt for the author value. I can successfully add/commit/update etc.
Cheers,
Tim

What are the exact contents of the svn:keywords property, and has that
been committed to the repository??
