VSIP not showing any files in Vault Pending Changes view

[robe070]

2 different environments. Our Backup system has been upgraded to 4.1.3 and our live system is 4.1.1. A workable VS 2005/8 integrated source control is a good reason to upgrade. In 4.1.1 its not useable for us. Performance is the main issue. In fact so slow we didn't bother checking any further.

Backup:
[23/10/2008 9:17:03 AM] Version Check: This Vault client is version 4.1.3.18336
[23/10/2008 9:17:03 AM] Version Check: Your Vault server is version 4.1.3.18336

Client is running on the Server. Server is Windows Server 2003 R2 64 Bit

Live:
[23/10/2008 10:08:31 AM] Version Check: This Vault client is version 4.1.1.18060
[23/10/2008 10:08:31 AM] Version Check: Your Vault server is version 4.1.1.18060

Server is Windows Server 2003 R2 64 Bit. Client is Windows XP Pro SP3 32 bit

Both are using VS 2005 SP1.

The functional problem is this. When I check out a file its ticked in VS 2005 and marked in the Vault Client as exclusively checked out, and Vault CLient shows the file in its Pending Change Set view. But, the files is not listed in the Pending Changes view in VS 2005. Thus you cannot Commit All or Commit Selected. If I right click the file and choose Check In I I get the error "There were no items found for Check In". (Note that Binding DOES show the changes in the VS Pending Changes view and they can be checked in)

I also used VS 2008 (no SP) on the 4.1.1 system. This is faster to bind, check out and doesn't effect editing performance. Apart from that it has exactly the same behaviour as VS 2005.

The output view (2005 and 2008) does have lines like this:
Exclusively checking out $/VL/Trunk/work/x_win95/x_lansa/src/crypt.h
Checking out file $/VL/Trunk/work/x_win95/x_lansa/src/crypt.h
Checked out file $/VL/Trunk/work/x_win95/x_lansa/src/crypt.h
Exclusively checked out $/VL/Trunk/work/x_win95/x_lansa/src/crypt.h

Vault VSIP client log is attached. Its just a Check Out.

Sorry you've having trouble.

Are you saying this worked in 4.1.1 but doesn't work in 4.1.3?

Does the information from this post apply?

[robe070]

I'm saying that 4.1.1 and 4.1.3 are the same. Neither work.

The post you referred to is the cause. Its an application that existed long before Visual Studio so the directories are not standard. The vcproj and sln are in subdirectories all by themselves, mostly. Hence nothing is found.

If I move the solution to the highest level directory that is a parent of the source directories I presume it will then find the files?

[ian_sg]

Indeed, that will work. Sorry for the inconvenience.

We hope to handle layouts like these better in a future release.
