I guess Apache needs something added to the path. The following works for me (note the '-c' and quotes): ************************************************************ $ sudo su -m www -c 'rlog /usr/home/cvsroot/test/a,v' RCS file: /usr/home/cvsroot/test/a,v Working file: a ... $ ll /usr/home/cvsroot/test/a,v -r--r--r-- 1 noackjr noackjr - 199 Mar 23 2004 /usr/home/cvsroot/test/a,v ************************************************************ >>Any chance you can try devel/cvsweb3 and see if you have the same >>problem? > > I tried.

These will be sorted out eventually. In the meantime, I'd say running without cvsweb.cgi without mod_perl 2 is a better bet. OTOH, mod_perl 1.2x should work.

or all of this message may not be legible. -- Arvind, I have not seen this particular error message from rlog before. However problems with "failed to spawn GNU rlog on" are commonly reported. I have always the same copy of rcstools which always seems to work. Try this copy of rlog instead.
