The only logical explanation I can come up offhand with is that /home/developer/cvsroot might not be a directory (is it a symlink?). What does the following command print when run it as the user that runs cvsweb.cgi (ie. your web server): perl -e 'print -d "/home/developer/cvsroot" ? "yep" : "no", "\n"' > # 'symbolic_name' => ['name_to_display', 'path_to_the_actual_repository'] > # Listed in the order specified: > @CVSrepositories = ( > 'local' => ['Local Repository', '/home/developer/cvsroot'], > # 'freebsd' => ['FreeBSD', '/home/ncvs'], > # 'openbsd' => ['OpenBSD', '/home/ncvs'], > # 'netbsd' => ['NetBSD', '/home/ncvs'], > # 'ruby' => ['Ruby', '/var/anoncvs/ruby'], > ); -- \/
