Problems generating stats: Repository root not available

[dhaarbrink]

Hello all,

a few months ago i have set up statsvn 0.4.0 on a linux box and it worked fine.

until today.. since i hadn't automated the stats generation process i wanted to do it manually (been a while, last time was May this year). so i opened the readme and executed the 'svn log' command within the directory of my working copy. so far so good, the svn.log looks nice.
off to the generation process. i changed my directory to where statsvn is located, and executed statsvn.jar, but i got errors. so, first i upgraded to the latest version 0.4.1, which gave me this (exactly the same as version 0.4.0) output:

[root@trees statsvn-0.4.1]# java -jar statsvn.jar /asClasses/svn.log /var/www/html/statsvn/asClasses/
5-Aug-08 4:32:10 PM net.sf.statsvn.util.JavaUtilTaskLogger info
INFO: StatSVN - SVN statistics generation

5-Aug-08 4:32:10 PM net.sf.statsvn.util.JavaUtilTaskLogger info
INFO: svn: '.' is not a working copy
5-Aug-08 4:32:10 PM net.sf.statsvn.util.JavaUtilTaskLogger error
SEVERE: Repository root not available - verify that the project was checked out with svn version 1.3.0 or above.


i have repeated the above process a couple of times using different directories, all absolute paths, relative paths, checked out new working copies, everything i could think of but i can't figure out the problem.
i googled, browsed the forums, the wiki, none of them provided an answer.

as far as i can recall, there have been no system changes. the only thing i can think of that has changed is that i have set up authentication within subversion.


does anybody know what could possibly cause this problem?

thanks in advance.

Hi Dennis, I'm not sure what's going on with gmail's handling of mailing lists, your message was approved to be forwarded to the list but I never got the actual message delivered. So I'm pasting out of the moderation email.

Sounds like you've been extremely thorough, so I'm not sure if this has been tried, but... looking at the command line you've reported:

[root@trees statsvn-0.4.1]# java -jar statsvn.jar /asClasses/svn.log /var/www/html/statsvn/asClasses/

It seems like you're running this from the statsvn directory, with your SVN working directory (your project module checkout directory) being /asClasses, but you're telling statsvn to use </var/www/html/statsvn/asClasses> as the checkout directory. The format of the command is:

java -jar /path/to/statsvn.jar LOGFILE SVN.WORKING.DIR

And the output directory is set with "-output-dir". So have you tried:
java -jar statsvn.jar /asClasses/svn.log /asClasses -output-dir /var/www/html/statsvn/asClasses/


Let us know if this helps,
Jean-Philippe Daigle

Hi Jean-Philippe,

Thanks for your quick reply! It absolutely solved my problem.
I 'accidentally' forgot that the second param to statsvn.jar was the output directory, while, in fact, it is the directory of the working copy.

So you were right assuming i supplied the output dir instead of working copy dir.

Thanks again,
Dennis Haarbrink
