Apologies if this is handled on the list recently, but I haven't had any luck
googling an answer.. don't see anything in the manual either.
Although I've done lots of upgrades, it's been a while since I installed a new
subversion server completely from scratch, so I'm just now running into the
fact that commit-email.py has been deprecated. commit-email.rb has no useful
documentation .. not even a basic usage summary.. so I'm trying to get
mailer.py working. I've run into an error I can't explain though, and I'm
hoping someone has a pointer for me.
This is using subversion 1.7.5 and the mailer.py and python bindings that come
with it, both installed out of ports on a FreeBSD box.
My mailer.conf file is present in the same directory as mailer.py, and is
pretty much the default with the addition of a catch-all group at the end of
the file:
> diff mailer.conf.example mailer.conf
24c24
< #smtp_hostname = localhost
---
> smtp_hostname = localhost
361a362,365
> [catchall]
> for_repos = /var/svn/repos/(?P<repo>[^/]*)
> to_addr = commit-%(repo)@conundrum.com
> from_addr = svnad...@conundrum.com
I'm working with a test repository:
> ls /var/svn/repos/svn-test/
README.txt conf dav db format hooks locks
Subversion is running as an Apache module, so I'm expecting mailer to be run by
the www user. I get the following error:
> sudo -u www ./mailer.py commit svn-test 10
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "./mailer.py", line 1435, in <module>

svn_repos_open
return _repos.svn_repos_open(*args)
svn.core.SubversionException: 2 - Can't open file 'svn-test/format': No such
file or directory
The file svn-test/format is clearly present. This isn't just environment.. I
get the same error passed back when mailer.py is run by a post-commit script.
Is there something else here I'm missing?
