Hi all, I have installed gnats version 4.0 and am now in the process
of trying to run/debug gnatsweb. When I try and run the “test” script
I get the error “Gnatsweb unable to connect to the GNATS server”,
debugging this problem I notice that the “test” script fails when it
calls the subroutine init_fieldinfo. This subroutine is actually
implemented in the file gnatsweb.pl. Specfically there is a a
subroutine call “ client_cmd(“list InitialRequiredFields”) which
fails. I actually tried this list command myself by telnet’ing into
the gnats server and trying the command by hand, upon doing so I get
the response “416 No such list as InitialRequiredFields”
Is it safe to try and remove this particular call to client_cmd from
the test to get a positive result,
Paul,
I am unable to reproduce this. Are you running the final version of
GNATS 4.0? The InitialRequiredFields functionality was implemented
rather late in 4.0 development, either right before beta 2 or right
after it. You need to check that your gnatsd comes from the final
version of 4.0.
