I have the same problem described below. I notice that all files name have a
double // after path.

Error: Failed to spawn GNU rlog on "/var/cvsroot/CVSROOT//loginfo,v,
/var/cvsroot/CVSROOT//rcsinfo,v, /var/cvsroot/CVSROOT//editinfo,v,
/var/cvsroot/CVSROOT//verifymsg,v, /var/cvsroot/CVSROOT//commitinfo,v,
/var/cvsroot/CVSROOT//taginfo,v, /var/cvsroot/CVSROOT//checkoutlist,v,
/var/cvsroot/CVSROOT//cvswrappers,v, /var/cvsroot/CVSROOT//notify,v,
/var/cvsroot/CVSROOT//modules,v, /var/cvsroot/CVSROOT//config,v".

Having a look into cvsweb.cgi code it seems that $where end with a /.

In getDirLogs there is:

        my ($DirName) = "$cvsroot/$where";

Some lines below:

If in getDirLogs I change this line:

        push (@files, &safeglob("$DirName/*,v"));

whith
        push (@files, &safeglob("$DirName . *,v"));

the error goes away, but I get the message:

Note: There are n files, but none matches the current tag( )

Only Directory are now visible and browsable.

My system is RH 9 full patched.

I also verified the same problem in version 1.0.5 and 1.0.4.

Yes, you're on the correct list.

Most likely that's the problem, mod_perl 2 has issues with the current
cvsweb.cgi.  These will be sorted out eventually.  In the meantime, I'd
say running without cvsweb.cgi without mod_perl 2 is a better bet.
OTOH, mod_perl 1.2x should work.

HTH,
