Hi Johan,

I tried to mail this orginally to the p4ruby mailing list, but got no responses - did you have a chance to look at it (including original mail for reference):

Sorry, I missed that one somehow.

I'm having problems using p4 login in combination with P4Ruby. Even if I have a current logon session it seems as P4Ruby expects P4PASSWD to be set, error msg: "Perforce password (P4PASSWD) invalid or unset."

Sounds fishy to me.

I'm using p4d 2003.2 (FreeBSD) in combination with p4 2004.2 at the client side (WinXP), and p4 login isn't officially support for 2003.2 IIRC - could this be a part of the problem?

No, it should be OK. Which version of P4Ruby are you using? Could you send the output of

ruby -rP4 -e 'puts P4.identify' and p4 -V

Also, did you consider making P4Ruby available as a RubyGem?

I can't say I've given it much thought, but I'll certainly look into it. Thanks for the nudge!

Tony
