Hello support,
I admit that this is borderline twilight zone but we have been scratching our heads for a while now and we are in need for some ideas. Below is what we are experiencing:
Some of my team members have recently installed MyEclipse 6.5.1 and we are having a bizarre behavior. I am hoping that someone might have some ideas. This is related to CVS integration.
1) Our CVSnt repository has been configured to send emails to members of the team when a source code commit occurs using CVSMailer (note we have had this functionality working for 5+ years)
2) We have noticed that this capability has stopped for some of our team members. They are still able to commit but the email does not go out from our CVS server.
3) One of my team members has been trying to figure out what might be wrong and noticed that it appears to be a problem only when running MyEclipse 6.5.x, because when he uses MyEclipse 6.0.x the commits are sending out emails
I doubt this is myeclipse related by we are at a dead end. Any ideas?
Thanks for any help

Since CVSMailer is launched on the CVS Server side, the client side should not make a difference. Out of curiosity, is the 6.0.x CVS configuration identical to the 6.5.x? Are both using the same server name? Same connection type (such as pserver)? Same username, password?
I agree the client should not make a difference. Yes the CVS configuration are identical we use pserver and the same user ID and password. At first I thought it was beacuse we upgraded from an exisiting 6.0.x version to 6.5.x. I then asked one of the team members to install a brand new copy of 6.5.x on his machine but got the same problem. So now I am totally lost as to what could be causing this.
Thanks
MaxJust wanted to share my findings after a little more investigation I realized that the “repository path” in the eclipse configuration dialog box was showing \repo instead of /repo (note the slash). This appears to be the root of the issue in our scenario. I guess when CVSMailer tried to send the email it was failing. The bizarre part is that I would have expected Eclipse also to give me issues when checking-out or committing from and to CVS.
Anyway in case others have a problem this could be a reason.
Thanks
Max
