[Anthill] No VSS database (srcsafe.ini) found.

[Sharad Jain]

Hi All,

I am trying to get Anthill 1.7.0 to work with VSS and I am getting this age-old problem
with srcsafe.ini not found.

09:43:23:135 [Thread - AnthillBuildDaemon] INFO  com.urbancode.anthill.util.Execute  - [checkout] cmd /x/c cd /d C:\apps\anthill170\work\Active\soft && set SSDIR=\\server\gui\Data\vss && C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\VSS\win32\ss cp $/Active/soft && C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\VSS\win32\ss get * -R -I-Y -O- 

09:43:23:225 [Thread - AnthillBuildDaemon] ERROR com.urbancode.anthill.BuildManager  - ProfileAdapter checkout failed: No VSS database (srcsafe.ini) found.  Use the SSDIR environment variable or run netsetup.

********************

I have seen similar posts on this mailing list but this seems to be a different from them.
I tried to execute the checkout command from command line and it works when I breakup the
individual commands into separate line but clubbing them together with && separator fails.

Looks like it fails to recognize set SSDIR=... command and hence fails to find srcsafe.ini.
I am running this on Win2000 and the command prompt for this OS (obviously) supports cmd /x/c options.

I dont know what else could be wrong.
Is there anything else I can try !?!
