Hello, We are having problems with one of our working areas. The developer told me that he tried to rename several files from being lower case to having a leading upper case letter. He told me that he removed the files with the cvs remove and commit commands. But then when he attempted to add the new files with the new name, he got the following failure message: cvs commit -m "" Threats_warnings_completion.cfm cvs commit: [14:29:51] waiting for rgrow's lock in /usr/local/cvsroot/web_reports/htdocs/reports Another symptom, is when I do a cvs update in the working area of this project, I see several lines of messages like this: cvs update: nothing known about htdocs/reports/Physical_IO_statistics.cfm This is the name of the file that he had intended to add. Another symptom is that cvs will seg fault when I try to export this project. It progresses the export until it gets to the directory containing the files in question, at which point it seg faults. This happens if I run the cvs client on linux. If I run it on windows, it crashes in the same place with the message: 'Terminated with fatal signal 11'. We are using CVS 1.11 on Redhat Linux 7.0 for the repository. I'd appreciate any advice on how to restore the repository to a clean state from this locking problem.
