Chris,

today I looked for the permissions in the repository:
 ls -l doku*
dokuwiki:
total 64
drwxr-xr-x  10 root   root  4096 May 31 09:40 .
drwxr-xr-x  28 wwwrun www   4096 May 22 10:22 ..

rz36:/srv/www/htdocs/dokuwiki/ # cd _darcs/
rz36:/srv/www/htdocs/dokuwiki/_darcs # ls -l
total 36
drwxrwxrwx   7 wwwrun www     98 May 31 09:44 .
drwxr-xr-x  10 root   root  4096 May 31 09:40 ..
drwxrwxrwx   2 wwwrun www     93 May 22 10:22 checkpoints

drwxrwxrwx   2 wwwrun www   8192 May 30 09:57 patches
drwxrwxrwx   2 wwwrun www     88 May 31 09:40 prefs

Then I did a "chmod 777 * -R" again, and entered "darcs pull" as root.
darcs pulled 3 patches, but I told darcs not to apply them.

I su'd to wwwrun and re-entered "darcs pull":
wwwrun@rz36:/srv/www/htdocs/dokuwiki> darcs pull

darcs failed:  Not a repository: http://dev.splitbrain.org/darcs/dokuwiki

Hmmmmm, that's obviously not true... Why does darcs recognize a repository
when called by root and why does it not when called by wwwrun?

The installed darcs rpm consists of 3 files:
 rpm -ql darcs | xargs ls -l
- -rw-r--r--  1 root root    1849 Apr 22 11:28 /etc/bash_completion.d/darcs
- -rwxr-xr-x  1 root root 7928802 Apr 22 11:28 /usr/bin/darcs
- -rw-r--r--  1 root root    3127 Apr 22 11:28 /usr/man/man1/darcs.1.gz

all files may be read by everyone. Hm.

I renamed the dokuwiki subdir and did a "darcs get --partial
http://dev.splitbrain.org/darcs/dokuwiki"; as wwwrun. Now "darcs pull" does
not throw an error! Tomorrow I expect the darcs plugin to work properly...

Why that? :-?

Regards
Werner
