Bug 153072

- did the status appear after you refreshed or opened the versioning view or was the view already open and the status
changed after some action? Are you able to reproduce? did this happen more then once?

- do you remember which files had the status? their absolute path is stored in the caches .bin files so you could get
the interesting files from the cache by either searching for their name occurrence or just compute the cache files name
like the following:

String name = Integer.toString((new File("the files absolute path")).getParentFile().getAbsolutePath().hashCode() % 173
+ 172) + ".bin"; 

- please attach also the messages.log file

thanks

1) I can reproduce the problem 100% of the time since I backed up the cache directory.

2) The Versioning tab is visible on startup and it has a valid status for these files. Then a few ms later it says
something along the lines of "communicating with server" and updates the status changes to "unknown" for all these files.

3) I didn't understand your discussion on calculating the cache filenames, especially given the fact that you didn't
mention which sub-directories to look in. Am I supposed to calculate the hash, look in svncache/<filename>.bin or
something? As far as I can tell those files simply contain a single filename. Please elaborate on what I should be doing.

4) It turns out that if I compress the cache directory using RAR I can bring it down to 11MB. If you're interested, you
could download that at http://bbs.darktech.org/netbeans.cache.rar -- please let me know when you're done so I can remove
the file from the server.

I forgot to mention, one of the "unknown" files is "/trunk/adcaster/server/source/adcaster/domain/Administrator.java" so
you should be able to find it in the cache.

yes. i thought we are talking about var/cache/svncache instead of var/cache. However, you managed to provide the whole
cache so this problem should be gone.

looks like the remote status returned by the repo confused the svn module somehow. could you please run 

svn status -u --xml Administrator.java

from the command line and attach the output 

thanks

I happen to have moved some files around so I thought this would change the output, but it seems it does not for some
reason. For example, /trunk/adcaster/server/source/adcaster/domain/Administrator.java now resides in
/trunk/adcaster/server/source/adcaster/server/domain/Administrator.java yet:

1) Netbeans still reports the status as "unknown" in the old location if I use the old cache directory
2) The output of "svn status -u --xml Administrator.java" remains the same regardless of what directory I invoke it from:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<status>
<target
   path="Administrator.java">
<against
   revision="16"/>
</target>
</status>

do i understand right - do you get the problem only when working with the old cache?

what exactly is the history of the problematic file? you were moving it around - what exactly were you doing? it would
be great if you could provide a scenario how to reproduce the problem...

by the way - did you move the files in netbeans or externally with some other tool?

one more thing

> 2. The Versioning tab is visible on startup and it has a valid status for these files
this confuses me a bit - in the original post you mentioned that the file was uptodate. So what was the status shown in
the view?

I had a cache that was up-to-date. I don't recall if these problems started before I renamed the packages or after, but
I suspect before. I used the refactoring module to rename packages.

Good point. If I remember correctly, the view showed the files as modified, then it contacted the server and changed
their status to unknown. According to TortoiseSVN the files were unmodified.

There is one other thing worth mentioning: while I moved files around from within Netbeans I almost always commit SVN
from outside using TortoiseSVN. Is it possible that this corrupted the cache somehow? If I recall correctly, TortoiseSVN
supports true file renames/moves whereas Netbeans uses SVN delete followed by add. That's part of the reason I use
TortoiseSVN. Another part of it is that I sometimes wish to commit files that don't show up in the project (that is,
files outside the source/test directories).

in what mode is the view set? all | local | remote? do you get "unknown" also when "local" is selected?

yes. that could be the case ...

i've tried a couple of scenarios, thing like - move a file between folders (localy or remotely) and commit (from or
outside of IDE), etc., yet i wasn't able to reproduce

> Another part of it is that I sometimes wish to commit files that don't show up in the project (that is,

just a note - you might use the favorites view for this

wasn't able to reproduce and haven't been reported by anybody else. will close for now...

screenshot showing netbeans and osx details

I'm having this issue at the moment using netbeans 6.7.1 on osx.  Screenshot attached.

Please reopen if reproducible with the current release, 6.7.1 is quite old.

OsX Netbeans 7rc1

I get an uknown SVN status when I:

1. create a new file
2. Rename the file but only change capitalisation (eg UserDAO to UserDao).

When I try and commit UserDao has two entries in the commit dialog.

From then on I have one UserDao always present with status unknown.

Work around: delete var/cache/svnache

Just to update the bug status, I see the bug in NetBeans 7.0.1 on OSX Lion.

Bug still existing in NetBeans IDE 7.0.1 (Build 201111061500) on Mac OS X Version 10.7.2

as you can see, Target Milestone is set to 7.1. That means this issue is/will be fixed in 7.1 release not sooner.
Closing again.

Guide to workaround as this caused me some drama on 7.01 on Mac OS Lion 
worked for me.

Step 1
Check out a fresh working copy you know is good ( not required but recommended)

Step 2 
Open up Net beans and verify it reports files in unknown state, with blue locally modified icon over the offending directory ( see screen shot attached to bug )

Step 3 
Close net beans

Step 4 
rm $HOME/netbeans/7.0/var/cache/svncache/*
( note version number was 7.0 for 7.0.1  ?? )

Step 5
Start up Netbeans and the problem is gone.
you check out is good and you were not losing you mind thinking it wasn't.

Step 4 
rm $HOME/.netbeans/7.0/var/cache/svncache/*
( note version number was 7.0 for 7.0.1  ?? )

This solved it for me too.

Step 4 
rm $HOME/.netbeans/7.0/var/cache/svncache/*
( note version number was 7.0 for 7.0.1  [CONFIRMED] )
