Get on Label not working, gets latest version

aabragan · Post by **aabragan** » Wed Feb 28, 2007 10:37 am

We are trying to do a get on a labeled version of our project, but vault does a get on the latest files and not the labeled version. I would think that it would let me download the labeled version as needed. I am doing a full get on the label at the top folder level. I am running on the latest version of vault. If I delete all the files from the folder and do a get on the label, the correct labeled files are retrieved. Is this a bug with vault's checking mechanism, or am I missing some piece of the puzzle?

I'm assuming you are getting to your working folder or are you getting to another folder?

You might try performing a diff between the file you got that you know has changes and the repository to check and see what that has to say about the files.

Where are you performing the get from? From the Vault GUI client or from some IDE?

I am doing the get to my working folder in the Vault GUI Client. The labeled file is version 582 but whenever I do a get on the label '7.1' it does not get the 582 version, and simply keeps the 583 version. I did a diff on the 2 versions and they are not identical, so the crc's should be different...

Also. if I delete the files from the machine and try to do a get on the label the file does not get pulled down.

What happens if you perform a Get on the version 582 that was checked in by Scott? Does that pull down?

Individual gets on the files from the history always gets the correct version. it is the get on the label for the whole folder that is failing. I can get any of the versions of any of the files manually without any problems.

I did a diff on the whole folder against the 7.1 label and the results as you can see in the screenshot show that vault believes that the file is different, and yet it will not get the file when I try and get on the label.

Is this a bug? This is quite a serious problem for us as we release both interim updates and new functionality (in 2 different versions). If we are unable to get on our label for the main folder this poses a serious problem for us and we would like to request you to help us find a viable solution. Getting each file individually is not viable as we have almost 6000 files in total. I would appreciate an answer as soon as possible.

This is being worked through off-line. A follow-up will be posted when complete.

All the more reason Vault should show you which version it pulled in the output window. This is something I suggested a month ago in this post: http://support.sourcegear.com/viewtopic.php?t=7413

BTW -- what was the resolution to this user's post?

No resolution yet. Still working on it.
