I have tried installing the Subversion post-commit script as posted on http://lighthouseapp.com/help/setting-up-subversion-integration

Unfortunately it doesn't work. My subversion commit message fails with:

Transmitting file data .... Committed revision 1146.

Warning: 'post-commit' hook failed with error output:

Kompakt:~/Rails

In other words: no error output. Executing the post-commit script manually also yields nothing, no errors, no output of any kind.

Please help! What is the manual test-output supposed to look like? The token is there and I have changed the options hash fine.

   Try running the post_commit rake task manually with the --trace option. Ideally there should be no output.

   There's no output indeed. The Subversion error disappeared when I did a chmod +x. Unfortunately though the comments still don't show up. Is there a time lag?

   I have looked over the script multiple times but I cannot see the problem.

   Can you see if the POST request is arriving at bemba.lighthouseapp.com?

   I didn't see anything from your domain going to /projects/xxxx/changesets.
   

   Running the task with --trace should give you output. If it doesn't, something is wrong with rake. It should at least tell you what tasks it's going through. Can you try putting a manual puts statement in the script? Put this underneath the END_XML line on line 48:

   
   puts changeset_xml
   

   Also, underneath the 'res =' line of 58, try this:

   
   puts res.inspect
   

   Also, make sure 'which svnlook' gives you the right path for the svnlook command...
