I finally managed to install PVCS plugin. Thanks to all the directions jasonhobbs has posted, but now I am getting, SCC_E_INITIALIZEFAILED error message when I try to run VM from the Merant Menu. Does any one have a clue how to fix this?

7.5 and up seem to work OK with Eclipse 3 after performing the above steps. I don’t know much about Tracker, but the PVCS plugin does have some additional functionality other than just version control. I believe it has some sort of ‘watcher’ (if that’s what tracker is) where it’ll watch a repository for changes etc…

Does anybody know how I set “default upload rules” ? When I try to add some item to Dimensions the following message comes up to Merant console:

Could not locate default upload rules.
Run IDE Setup and load the default rules.
Error: Invalid Rule Base

Tks in advance

Hello, Allan.

You’ll have to do exactly what the message says : load default upload rules, where some of them are related to eclipse (%.java, %.xml … and not much more). See your Dimensions documentation on how to upload default rules (I think it’s in the same manual where you can find details on all the IDEs supported).

Best regards,
Luis

If using WSAD integration with Dimensions, I’ve found that using Eclipse 3M2 one can experience irregular behaviour (at least a different behaviour from that found with Eclipse 2.1).

Hi,
Thanks for the useful info regarding Eclipse 3.1.x and PVCS integration.
I followed the steps and hit the SCC_E_INITIALIZEFAILED error.
It turned out that PVCS Source Control connectivity was disabled.
To enable it, under Start -> Programs -> PVCS VM Development Interface -> Select PVCS Provider, ensure that PVCS Source Control option is selected. Mine was by default Set to disable source control.
restart Eclipse, error gone and all is rosy!
Hope this helps anyone who stumbles across this thread as I did!

Hi All,
Can someone tell me where I can find the PVCS plugin for eclipse 3.2. I already have Version Manager 6.7.00 installed in my machine.

Thanks & Best Regards,
Debopam.

Debopam,

I looked around and only found such a thing on the Serena site here: http://www.serena.com/US/products/pvcs/pvcs-version-manager.aspx

If you’re already a Serena customer, which you appear to be since you have Version Manager 6.7 installed, I’d suggest the easiest way to get what you want is to contact Serena directly.

Hi,

You can using PVCS VM 7.5 for integration with Eclipse 3.0 by :

In you eclipse install folder, in the links folder

create a file called com.merant.team.pvcs.link
containing:

path=C:\\Program Files\\PVCS\\vm\\devint\\eclipse2.1

(obviously correct any path here you might have used differently)

Copy the org.apache.xerces_4.0.13 plugin folder from eclipse 2.1 to your eclipse 3 plugins folder

And You will see the PVCS menu in Eclipse 3.0

a) Please run the following utility: Windows “Start” menu | All Programs | Serena | Dimensions CM 10.1.2 | Administration Tools | SCC Diagnostics
o From “Dimensions SCC Diagnostics” dialog, select control button “Test”

You should see a response similar too:

Testing….
OK: Found SCCServerName value is Dimensions SCC
OK: Found SCCServerPath value is C:\Program Files\Serena\Dimensions 10.1\CM\prog\sccpcms.dll
Serena Dimensions CM SCC Interface is OK

b) If you don’t see this response, copy results to an email. You can also continue analyzing the setup by starting “Regedit” from a “Command Prompt”:
o Look for the registry value string for subkey: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\SourceCodeControlProvider\ProviderRegKey
The value should be: SOFTWARE\Serena\Dimensions\10.1\PcmsScc
o Look for the registry value string for subkey: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Serena\Dimensions\10.1\PcmsScc\SCCServerName
The value should be: Dimensions SCC
o Look for the registry value string for subkey: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Serena\Dimensions\10.1\PcmsScc\ SCCServerPath
The value should be: C:\Program Files\Serena\Dimensions 10.1\CM\prog\sccpcms.dll

After this restart IDE & your problem will be solved.
