CVS to Bazaar importer

Is import from source forge working?

Asked by Paul Broadhead

I recently created a new project (elmapviewer) and requested a code import from source forge. The import has been run twice now and both times failed with the error message:

"cvs [checkout aborted]: connect to elmapviewer.cvs.sourceforge.net(66.35.250.97):2401 failed: Connection refused".

I can checkout the branch successful from my own computer so it looks like the is a problem is that source forge is refusing connection from your import machine. Of course I may have mis-configured the import but it looks OK to me. So is there a problem with source forge imports?

The full logs can be found here:

Thanks.

From the error log, I have constructed the command and tried it from my own machine. The command works perfectly so I can confirm that the vcs-imports machine is being denied access by the sourceforge server.

Heres the command:
cvs -q -d :pserver:<email address hidden>:/cvsroot/elmapviewer co -Pd foreign_working_tree elmapviewer

After a few days of failure, the import has finally worked (I changed nothing) so I guess the problem is solved. I do not that sourcefourge have been moving servers so that might have been the course; though why I could to the same command from my machine I do not know.
