problems with RB and Perforce config

[Chuck O'Neill]

Did a basic install/config for RB 2.0.18 and set up a Perforce repository. On a local mac installed RBTools 0.7.4.

rbt post --debug 323331

Unable to find a Review Board server for this source code tree.

I don't find anything in the logs to help me

coneill-mbp15 [514]:rbt list-repo-types

The following repository types are supported by this installation

of RBTools. Each "<type>" may be used as a value for the

"--repository-type=<type>" command line argument. Repository types

which are detected in the current directory are marked with a "*"

[*] "<type>": <Name>

   "svn": Subversion

   "git": Git

   "mercurial": Mercurial

   "cvs": CVS

 * "perforce": Perforce

   "plastic": Plastic

   "clearcase": ClearCase

   "bazaar": Bazaar

   "tfs": TFS

Any ideas what's likely the problem - Many thanks

Hi Chuck,

RBTools needs to know where the Review Board server is and what repository to use. You'll need to define a .reviewboardrc file at the root of the repository containing:

REVIEWBOARD_URL = 'https://yourserver/'

REPOSITORY = "<configured repo name in Review Board>"

See: https://www.reviewboard.org/docs/rbtools/0.7/rbt/configuration/repositories/#rbtools-repo-config

Thanks Christian - I stumbled into the same solution, but also had permission problems with /var/www/<rbname>/tmp. Once both were fixed, things seem fine. rbi setup-repo failed initially - I presume because of the permission problems - so I configured the .reviewboardrc file by hand. 

Appreciate the reply

Chuck
