Hudson on Windows not detecting CVS checkins

Question

I'm getting odd behaviour from my Hudson setup on Windows when monitoring a CVS repository; access is via extssh. After checking in a change to the repository, if I run "cvs status filename.ext" against the changed file in Hudson's working copy, I can see that the repository has a newer revision. However, Hudson (which is set to poll the CVS repository at a fixed interval) does not see the change when it does its cvs update.

Any ideas what might be going on ? I can't see anything useful in the Hudson logs.

Answer 1

check the clocks of both servers (cvs and hudson). This is the usual problem if you can't checkout from svn.
