Forum OpenACS Q&A: Re: how do I install developer support?

Hi Mathew,

What I usually do is go to my 'packages' directory of my instance and run this:

cvs -d:pserver:mailto:anonymous@cvs.openacs.org:/cvsroot checkout -r oacs-5-4 acs-developer-support

Then, go to http://yourinstance/acs-admin/apm > click on 'install packages' > select developer support > install and after the whole process, bounce your instance.

Hope that helps

I wanted to try your method because the standard way is causing an error. Unfortunately, I am behind a firewall and I think that is blocking the connection. This is what I get when I try your method:
[packages]$ cvs -d:pserver:mailto:anonymous@cvs.openacs.org:/cvsroot checkout -r oacs-5-4 acs-developer-support
cvs [checkout aborted]: connect to [cvs.openacs.org]:2401 failed: Connection timed out

Is there any other way to do this?

Thank you for the help.
