Good day everyone.
I'm attempting to migrate from CVS to Perforce but having some
difficulties.
First off, I'm running Perforce as root, the commands are being run as
root and my p4 account is non-root.
I downloaded the CVS2P4 utility, run through the procedures, but I am
unable to access the imported depot.
Here's the directory layout:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
/var/perforce/ - storage location for perforce.
/Users/dmckenna/cvs2p4/ - directory I run the commands from.
/Users/dmckenna/cvs2p4/converted/ - directory to do the import in.
/Users/dmckenna/cvs2p4/CVS/Websites/ - repository to import.
/Users/dmckenna/cvs2p4/CVS/Websites/TLCIntranet/ - module to import
(300mb).
------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
Here are the relevant lines from the config file:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
$P4 = "/usr/sbin/p4";
$P4D = "/usr/sbin/p4d";
$P4PORT = "localhost:1666";
$P4ROOT = "/var/perforce";
$DEPOT = "IMPORTED/TLCIntranet";
$P4USER = $pwent[0];
$P4_DEPOT = "//intranet";
$CVS_MODULE = "CVS/Websites/TLCIntranet";
$COPYIMPORT = 1;
$SYM_SPECIAL = 1;
$IGNOREFILES = "^(.cvsignore)\$";
$TRUNKLINE = "head";
$BRANCH_FLASH = "_BRANCH";
$ALLTHEWAYBACK=1;
$IMPORTTAGSPOOF=1;
$WANTLINES = 0;
$DEADSTATE = "dead";
$CHECKBIN = 0;
------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
I run through the three commands (genmetadata, genchanges, dochanges)
and everything appears to work fine.
The /var/perforce directory looks like this after the import:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
[AppleG4:/Users/dmckenna/cvs2p4] dmckenna# ls -l /var/perforce/
total 12032

As you can see, the import seems to work ok.
The problem is when I do this:
