Setting up Eclipse to connect to Sourceforge CVS

3.2k views Asked by At

I am new to SourceForge and CVS in general. Having some difficulties setting up Eclipse to connect to SoureForge CVS.

I have created project on http://testjavaproj.sourceforge.net, enabled(added) CVS option in SourceForge, have SSH/shell privileges.

In Eclipse added CVS repository with the following information
HOST: cvs.sourceforge.net
Repository Path: /cvsroot/Test_Java_project Connection Type: extssh

update: I found some info on SourceForge website

cvs -d:pserver:[email protected]:/cvsroot/testjavaproj login
cvs -z3 -d:pserver:[email protected]:/cvsroot/testjavaproj co -P modulename

Tried to log-in using: Host: testjavaproj.cvs.sourceforge.net
Repository Path:/cvsroot/testjavaproj

However, I am still getting the error message:
Error fetching resource list from repository. Reason: Could not connect to :extssh:[email protected]:/cvsroot/testjavaproj: CVS communication error: org.eclipse.team.internal.ccvs.ssh2.CVSSSH2ServerConnection$SSH2IOException: Connection refused: connect

Thanks !

SourceForge CVS services are down. See Site Status.

Try with host: testjavaproj.svn.sourceforge.net
and repository path: /cvsroot/testjavaproj
