@Sayali Thank you for visiting my blog! Here are a few pointers to check if scmbug is functioning or not:

(scmbug documentation is good place to start which is found here )

1. configure the daemon.conf to link to the appropriate bugzilla instance, products mapping within Bugzilla, mapping of users between Bugzilla and SVN etc., daemon.conf is usually found in /etc/scmbug
3. scmbug glue installer should be used to install the required hooks into the appropriate SVN repository. Typically the glue installer “scmbug_install_glue” will be found under the /usr/bin.
3.Configure glue.conf to switch on scmbug integration. This file will be found under /hooks/etc/scmbug.

If all of the above steps were successful then when you try to commit a file into SVN, it will throw a error stating that a bugzilla number is required to commit the file. Remember that there should be a bug assigned to the committer to do a check-in else it will not allow a commit.

Look forward for a blog post “How to article on doing “scmbug integration with Bugzilla and SVN” which I have scheduled to add it this week. I think this should be useful to you.

Have a good one!
