resyncing p4 depot fails

My resync fails also. There is over 9000 changesets in repository. Using Trac Version 0.10b1 on Windows.

Do you know what was special about the particular changelist that is causing it to fail? Were there deleted file revisions? Do the file revisions contain integrations?

What Perforce server version are you using?

Perforce Server version: 2002.2/43075 on Windows 2000.

Python version: 2.4.2

I am not allowed to show the source files, but here are a description of the changeset.

p4 describe  -s 3443
Change 3443 by xxx@xxx on 2003/12/08 13:53:00

        ...

Affected files ...

... //depot/xxx#9 edit
... //depot/xxx#2 edit
... //depot/xxx#4 delete

... //depot/xxx#1 add
... //depot/xxx#3 edit
... //depot/xxx#2 edit
... //depot/xxx#3 edit
... //depot/xxx#5 delete
... //depot/xxx#1 add

When I run automatic resync from apache I got the following error:

Replying to jovi:

Did any of these changes involve deleting a file and adding a file under a directory of the same name? eg

... //depot/foo#4 delete
... //depot/foo/bar#1 add

The p4trac.repos.Node._get_action method contains logic that checks that a node is not a directory before checking if it is a file or deleted file and throws a NoSuchFile exception if the node is a directory. This check can probably be removed without adverse side-effects.

The change to the p4trac.repos.Node._get_action method fixed the problem.

It failed before on these changes in the changeset:

... //depot/foo/foo#4 delete
... //depot/foo/bar#1 add

(In [1287]) Fixed a bug that caused PerforceChangeset?.get_changes() to raise an error if a file was deleted and a directory with the same name added in the same changelist.

See #665 for details.

Replying to r.blum@gmx.net:

I'm starting up trac-admin, and issue the resync command. After a while, I get this:

  Trac [C:\data\test]> resync
  Resyncing repository history...
  Command failed: 'depotFile'

This would seem to be due to the output of a 'p4 fstat' command not containing a 'depotFile' entry.

Would you able to provide some more details on which version of the Perforce server you are running, the contents of the changelist being synced or of the 'p4 fstat' record that is causing the error?

Resyncing repository history... Command failed: 'depotFile'

I am getting the same error....i put the path //depot/user/ for the path

Any help is appreciated....thanx

hi, i don't know if you still need a solution for the error Command failed: 'depotFile' but as far as i can remember, i had a similar problem. you could verify the repository with the following command:

p4 verify -q //...

in my case it returned some filenames that were actually missing. afterwards, i deleted the missing files with this command:

p4 obliterate -y <file>

if you happen to have a backup of your repository, you can try to restore those files. a detailed description on what you can do with resolving the problem of missing files in your perforce repository can be found here.

i hope that helps or even resolves your problem

kind regards, andi
