Setup: Win XP, DirectCD, cywin, CVS. My CVS repository is on CD-RW, which I access via DirectCD. This allows me to work efficiently both at home and at work; I just carry a CD and I don't depend on a network connection. Even if I forget the CD-RW, I still have CVS to reconcile later. This worked great when I was running on Win 2K, with DirectCD 3.05. I have recently upgraded to Win XP, and DirectCD 5.3. When I try to check in a file, I get:
aviatic> cvs commit -m '' index.xml Checking in index.xml; /cygdrive/e/cvsrepository/foo/index.xml,v <-- index.xml new revision: 1.5; previous revision: 1.4 cvs [commit aborted]: cannot rename file /cygdrive/e/cvsrepository/foo/,index.xml, to /cygdrive/e/cvsrepository/foo/index.xml,v: Permission denied aviatic> (The CD drive is of course on E: and my CVS repository is in cvsrepository). All other functions seem to ok, including moving files: aviatic> cat > /cygdrive/e/foo test aviatic> ls /cygdrive/e cvsrepository foo aviatic> mv /cygdrive/e/foo /cygdrive/e/bar aviatic> ls /cygdrive/e bar cvsrepository aviatic> Of course, I suspect DirectCD to behave slightly differently from before, and CVS/cygwin to depend on that difference. I have not tried to ask Roxio, but I suspect it's not going to help much. Any suggestion from this group? Any suggestion on how to achieve the same goal (working at two places without depending on a network connection)? By the way, cygwin is just great. Thank you very much to all involved in developing it. Thanks in advance for any help, Eric. -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
