Can't get new files onto the server

I have a project setup and working mostly fine for source control.

Today I created a new folder inside of a project and added some files. I did not check these in immediately. They showed checked out as they should.

When I check in within VS.Net I get no error, but hte files don't show up on the server (Get latest version doesn't show them in the client).

If I try to add the files from the Vault Client explicitly I get an error:

The server had an error processing the file upload, but did not return an error. Aha!

The log file shows that the files were added:

----3/3/2004 12:57:14 AM rstrahl--proxy1.hawaii.rr.com(24.25.227.132)--SSL Disabled

Ending transaction
----3/3/2004 12:57:15 AM rstrahl--proxy1.hawaii.rr.com(24.25.227.132)--SSL Disabled
EndTxSuccess

But I can't see them in the Vault Client. VS.Net still holds them as checked out. If I try to check them in I get no error but the status does not change either.

What's happening here?

Ok, it seems the problems is actually worse. I can't check anything in on this project. I can check out a file, but whenever checking in a file on this particular project I get the above error...

Even more disturbing is that VS.Net doesn't even bother to give me an error message. It just leaves the file checked out - no warning, no message...

The server log seems to indicate that every checkin or new file request works.

More info:

Vault Server 2.0.1 and Client 2.0.1 but problem started with 2.0. To make sure I installed the latest update. Server running IIS 6... Several other projects on the same server are running fine.

What happens when you try to check the changes in using the Vault GUI client? We have much better error reporting in the GUI client, so that could help us narrow this down.

Hi Jeremy,

The error I described above comes from the Vault client:

The server had an error processing the file upload, but did not return an error.

VS.Net doesn't show any error, but shows transactions that are trying and according to the Output window are timing out (but timing out quickly - 2-3 seconds max).

Sorry, I missed that detail. Is there anything in the server's event log that would clue us in? Is it only uploading files and checkins to this one directory that causes problems? Can you rename something in that directory?

Also, your log file shows that you are going through a proxy. Have you tried disabling chunked encoding as specified at http://support.sourcegear.com/viewtopic.php?t=78? It could be the proxy that is dying without an error code.

Hi Jeremy,

Looks like that did it...

You know I was searching for some way to configure my HTTP connection in the client.

I don't need to go through the Proxy, but it looks like Vault picked this up from my default settings on the machine. It seems there should be some way to configure the HTTP connection properties (Timeouts, proxy etc.). Am I missing that somewhere?

rick:

have you investigated modifying vaultguiclient.exe.config?
