I have the latest and greatest Cygwin packages installed on two different machines and noticed the following problem on both using CVS:
CVS fails to create a read lock when trying to check out or update from a repository on the local network. If I revert to cygwin 1.5.9-1, CVS again works correctly. Maybe this a file lock issue with the latest cygwin, or perhaps CVS needs rebuilt for the new DLL? Also, there is nothing funny with permissions and the CYGWIN envar is currently unset. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> $ export CVSROOT=/cygdrive/G/code $ cvs co www cvs checkout: Updating www cvs checkout: cannot create read lock in repository `/cygdrive/G/code/www': No such file or directory cvs [checkout aborted]: read lock failed - giving up >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Regards, Mark Schamberger -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
