Solved.

cvs [checkout aborted]: cannot stat /var/lock/cvs/sources/www-zh-cn: No such file or directory

Is there a problem?

cvs server needs a file lock directory, but it didn't exist at the time you checked out the repo. Earlier on that day, the cvs server had a reboot because of a filled up /tmp (tmpfs) caused by crawling bots hitting viewvc. So the VM that hosts cvs server, vcs1, somehow didn't run a script at boot, which creates a tree of those directories (/var/lock/cvs). /var/lock is a symlink to /run/lock which is on tmpfs. Bob is looking into the reason why the script wasn't run.
