Commit Hook Failure

Question

I'm trying to implement some hooks, both pre and post fail however. I get the same error message for both when I try to commit:

'*-commit' hook failed (did not exit cleanly: apr_exit_why_e was 2, exitcode was
-1073741515).   with no output.

Exitcode -1073741515 looks to be an odd one, and a quick bit of google-fu got me this:

Treated as a hex DWORD, the error code you are seeing is 0xC0000135.

That is Sev=11, C=0, R=0, Facility=0, Code=0x0135.

The value 0xC0000135 can be found in NtStatus.h with the following definition

//
// MessageId: STATUS_DLL_NOT_FOUND
//
// MessageText:
//
//  {Unable To Locate Component}
//  This application has failed to start because %hs was not found.
// Re-installing the application may fix this problem.
//
#define STATUS_DLL_NOT_FOUND             ((NTSTATUS)0xC0000135L)

Ok, dll not found, shouldn't be too difficult right? I have a VM with svn on it that's being peaceful with these hooks. So I run Filemon.exe and Depends.exe on both machines.

I'm still slogging through the filemon logs for both servers, and depends isn't giving me any unique problems with any executable that I can think of being hit by a Commit Hook.

I decided to take a quick peek in the event logs, and Oh Boy!

'pre-commit' hook failed (did not exit cleanly: apr_exit_why_e was 2, exitcode was -1073741515). with no output. [409, #165001]

Extra smidgens of information, this [409, #165001] is all over google, but I'm not really picking up anything helpful.

The hook is explicitly calling an executable with three parameters.

C:\SubversionNotify\SubversionNotify.exe %1 %2 -pre

I've even tried to use variables as well.

SET REPOS=%1
SET REV=%2
C:\SubversionNotify\SubversionNotify.exe %REPOS% %REV% -pre

Looking in the filemon logs shows me that it never makes it to SubversionNotify.exe

It's getting to the point where I can't really spend much more time trying to implement this, help me SO, you're my only hope.

Server Specs:

Windows XP, running VisualSVN Server, latest release.

Edit: It seems as though SubversionNotify is throwing the exception, back to Depends.exe to check to see what dll is failing.

Error is as follows:

The application failed to initialize properly (0xc0000135).

That 0xC0000135 was seen earlier, dll hunt ahoy!

Normally the problem with commit hooks is that there is ABSOLUTELY no environment (thus no path), so all references have to be painfully explicit. I usually end up making a small batch file that changes directory to the proper directory and executes the command.

Edit:

TRY CHANGING DIRECTORY TO C:\SubversionNotify

Maybe you are missing some runtime dll that is required to run the program. Remember: There is NO path. You can simulate this by setting path to NOTHING in a command line window. set PATH=.

Verify that simple commands like notepad do not work. Does your exe work then? Find out where the missing dlls are and build a path at the start of the batch file.

The hook is explicitly calling an executable with three parameters. C:\SubversionNotify\SubversionNotify.exe %1 %2 -pre The question has been edited to reflect this.

Changing directory to C::\SubversionNotify nets me: 'Commit blocked by pre-commit hook (exit code 1) with output: The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect

SubversionNotify is in fact throwing the exception, missing some dll, just need to find out what one. Luckily I have a VM that seems to work with SubversionNotify. Compare and contrast time. Thanks for the help!

I'd thought I'd share the Solution here, as I got a great laugh out of it.

The SubversionNotify was written in .NET.
The Server did not have the .NET Framework installed.
The VM did.

I am wearing a dunce cap now.

Thanks for posting your answer. If you didn't I would have spent a lot more time trying to run this down and feeling even more stupid than I do now. Just blew out a box and did an install of VisualSVN and SubversionNotify and couldn't figure out why it wasn't working.
