CVSSCC Proxy and Visual Interdev 6 (SP5) setup

Hello,

Since yesterday (13 July 2004) I have been trying to get your plug-in to
work from within MS Visual InterDev (Visual InterDev 6.0 (SP5)). So far I
haven't succeeded to setup a project under source control.

My current situation looks as followed:
1) Running CVS server under Linux (Kernel 2.4.17 using CVS 1.11.1p1)
2) a Windows 2000 SP4 client
3) Using TortoiseCVS/WinCVS (versions 1.6.14/1.3.17 (bare install) using
cvsnt version 2.0.41a which comes with TortoiseCVS)
4) Setup the plug-in to use the cvs.exe from Tortoisecvs
5) using SSH to connect to the CVS server, so meaning :ext: protocol
6) setup a system wide CVS_RSH variable to point to a
'TortoisePlinkWithPassword.bat' file (containing
'd:\development\tortoisecvs\tortoiseplink -pw ****** %1 %2 %3 %4 %5 %6 %7
%8 %9' -> where '******' is my SSH password)

We have set up a development environment for an ASP project in the
following manner:
1) IIS5 server on Windows 2000 Server SP5
2) Created a website
- no 'source control' enabled
- 'front-page' extensions enabled on the web-site to allow working from
Visual Interdev
- no Visual Interdev 'script-library' installed on the server

From both Tortoise and WinCVS I'm perfectly able to connect to the CVS
server and perform all CVS operations I would like to do (we have been
using TortoiseCVS with Linux CVS server for a few years already).

From within Visual Interdev the 'Project/Source Control' menu option is
enabled and when I choose to open an existing project it allows me to
choose for 'Source Control'. So I concluded that the plug-in was installed
correctly. I do have the 'Switch SCC' application active in my system tray
(Is it neccesary to have to switch application running??).

When I start a new project witin VI (Visual Interdev) I connect it to the
website (using 'master mode. Does is matter which mode I choose (master or
local)??). Adding files to the website within VI is no problem.

Then I want to add the new project to CVS, I can select the project and
press 'add to source control'. The first time I am presented with question
if I want to put the solution within source control (I say 'yes') and then
a window (from the plug-in I assume) to connect to CVS. After filling in
the repository and the module, it puts some files within CVS (this also
means that the connection works I guess). If I look within the CVS
repository, only the sln (solution) file is there and NOT the other files
within my project.

So far I haven't found any way to add the other websites files from within
VI to the CVS module, or check-in/check-out any files at all (except the
solution file).

Maybe I am doing something wrong or something isn't setup correctly, but
after a day of looking and trying I am out of ideas.

Do you have any idea what I should do to get it to work?

Thanks in advance for your response.


Regards,

Patrick
