Vault Fails to Update FogBUGZ on Checkin

Post by BrianSchmitt » Wed Oct 06, 2004 1:56 pm

I am using Vault version 2.0.6.2219

When I checkin a modified file I populate the "Update Bugs" field with the appropriate bug number. I click ok and the file is checked in however in the Messages tab I receive the error:
Unable to update one or more of the following bug(s): ###

as I am typing this its occurred to me that we use basic authentication on our fogbugz site. So I may need to switch it to anonymous is that true? One wonders if it would also also fail if ssl was being used on fogbugz as well??

Some guidance would be appreciated.

You may need to allow anonymous access for the fogbugz site in order for the auto-update to occur.

SSL *should* work fine as long as the correct URL is configured in the Admin Tool (https://servername/fogbugz instead of http://servername/fogbugz).

Usually when Vault is unable to update Fogbugz it is because Vault can't reach the Fogbugz site so the web request returns an exception.

The URL that Vault uses to update FogBugz is:

FOGBUGZURL/cvsSubmit.asp?ixBug=bugID&sFile=file&sPrev=x&sNew=y

The FOGBUGZURL is the URL configured in the Vault Admin Tool. If you have a "test" case in fogbugz you want to play with you can enter the above URL in the in a browser on your Vault Client machine and see if you get an error. The use of the URL is documented in the FogBugz help:

Help->Using Fogbugz with SourceControl Systems->Setup.

For testing purposes you can enter whatever you want for in the URL for file, x and y. (Just FYI, how Vault actually uses this URL is described in the following thread:
