You can't create files and folders on the server under the repository path directly and expect them to magically become *,v rcs files.
After you set up the server and sort out your access permissions, then you need to go to your client machine and import or upload (by running the import command) your project into cvs under version control. Once the import command is successful, cvs automatically careates the *,v rcs files and now is aware of the modules. And then you need to move your local non-versioned folder on your client machine out of the way so WinCvs is not obstructed by it. And finally use cvs client(wincvs) to check out the new module. > From: [email protected] > To: [email protected] > Date: Wed, 2 Dec 2009 14:49:38 -0500 > CC: > Subject: Problem checking out newly created module > > Hi, > > I created a module by mkdir'ing it then chowing it to cvs > Then I created entry in modules and modules,v and still I cannot check > it out! > > What is going on? > > -- > Mohit Kakkar > Systems Administrator > Systemware Innovation > 416-932-4643 > > > -- > --------------------------------------------------------------------------- > NOTICE OF CONFIDENTIALITY: > This email and any attachments may contain information that is privileged, > and/or confidential, and is meant only for the intended recipient(s).If > the reader of this email is not the intended recipient, you are hereby > notified that any unauthorized dissemination, distribution or reproduction > of this email, or its attachments, is strictly prohibited.
