i get

In D:\web\project beehive\beehiveforum: "C:\Program Files\TortoiseCVS\cvs.exe" "-q" "checkout" "-P" "beehiveforum"
CVSROOT=:ext:benlumley@beehiveforum.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/beehiveforum

cvs.exe [checkout aborted]: end of file from server (consult above messages if any)

Error, CVS operation failed

and i also get a red box saying connection error.

it is angering me. i've tried poking firewalls etc, and all to no avail.

You don't have PeerGuardian running do you? One of the latest updates to the P2P list includes sourceforge which you'll need to add to your allow list.

aha.

 

that phrase about nails and heads would be appropriate.

 

had a feeling it'd be something obvious.

 

ta.

Is something weird happening with character encoding? I'm seeing the usual weird shit instead of accented characters and currency symbols and stuff, like when unicode's broken.

 

Is this something you're doing to try to get the RSS working? (giggle)

It's the other way around. Unicode has never worked that well with Beehive, but it now should. In theory. Maybe.

 

So old posts will have broken unicode characters but new ones won't.

And so forth.

Eeeeeeeeeeeee grand. You're a marvel y'are.

Is your Sourceforge username actually benlumley? I've been trying to add both yourself and Pete as site admins but I can't add you as it reckons the user benlumley doesn't exist or you haven't activated your account.

i thought so ....

 

but i can't login, and i'm not listed on the beehive project either, was there with the list of devs before.

 

so ... errr.... unsure. finding out!

The project audit log does show Rendle adding you as a developer, but there is no entry about you being removed so I can only guess that you didn't validate your email or something like that and you've been removed automatically?

hmm. yes. must be something like that. i validated my email though, i have an email confirming it.

 

i shall register again when i have a minute
