Hi,

Has anyone attempted to use Subversion as a team services provider, for source (document) control, in the Information Server 8.5 Server Manager. I have a CollabNet Version 1.3.1 Repository of SubVersion setup, but when I try to update the eclipse plug-in to download the plug-in I get the following error: However, when I then try to update the eclipse framework I get additional errors!

I'm not particularly attached to CollabNet so if anyone has had any success with any other flavour I'd be keen to know.

Thanks...Jonathan

I'm about to embark on integration of SubVersion, though I don't know what "brand" the SubVersion server is (just started at new gig). We're using Tortoise as the client - but who doesn't? So, sometime in the near future, we have to configure the interface between Information Server Manager and SubVersion. Not a combination I've worked with yet either.

I've had an attempt at using the Subversive Eclipse plugin but I am still getting issues with the plugin requiring I'm also having issues updating the Framework itself!

I haven't tried any of these beyond early viewing of the supported CVS and Clear Case scenarios, but as far as I know, there is a requirement that whatever versioning tooling you try must have a plugin that is an implementation of Eclipse Team Support and formally supports Eclipse 3.3.

Ray I have successfully integrated subversion with 8.5 on a hpux Itanium server. You are welcome to give me a call and I can go over how I did it and how the interface works.

Hi Christiaan,

Would you mind sharing what version of Subversion and which eclipse plug-in you used? Did you follow the standard Information Server Manager app install and was there any gotchas?

Thanks in advance!

Thanks for those instructions, every helpful.

I second that, particularly since the site I'm at will be doing exactly what's described next week (or the week after).
:D

Thanks for that, the install worked as expected.

I have a feeling the previous issue I was experiencing was centered around the fact I was trying to apply the update to the Client on the Server (64 bit windows), that must have an incompatible version of the framework. AS it worked first time on the Client machine. I might raise the question with IBM in case it is a bug!

Regards...Jonathan

I was impressed today, which is a rare event. We've installed the plug-in and it works properly and all that, but the thing that impressed was the fact that the Information Server Manager help had been updated with a chapter on the SubVersion Eclipse plug-in.

We just started using this subclipse too, and it is working well for code versioning. I am attempting to get Packages into SVN as well from Info Server manager but running into trouble. Has any one used subclipse for packages?
