You want to checkout (or, in this case, update) the file
BhCtrl/BHTypes/BHTypes.csproj from the repository, but this file is
already in your sandbox. Unfortunately, the file is not under control of
CVS. Thus, CVS does not want to overwrite it, as you might loose the
file if it is totally different to what is checked out here.

Have you copied the file "by hand" into the sandbox?

You can rename the file BHTypes.csproj to something different and look
what CVS checks out for you.

Furthermore, I have seen this problem on the CVSHOME version of CVS on
Windows systems if there are files in the repository which differ only
in the case. Well, IIRC, it was more if there are directories which only
differ by case.

For more details, see the thread I started here

I assume that you don't have a HTMLGenerator file structure at this 
point, and that you use "cvs co" to get a pristine sandbox.

cvs co HTMLGenerator# i checkout repository once again, and i

cvs checkout: move away HTMLGenerator/images/rmv_row_f2.gif; it is in

In that case would I suggest that you try a "cvs update" instead of the

your sandbox.

Checkout is generally only used to create a CVS sandbox the first time 
and then never used again, which might explain why cvs is not pleased 
with all the files that are already there.

Looks like you have two files in the repository which just
differ in case (well/Well). If you're working (partly) on Windows
this of course won't work. If having two files was not intentional
you need to remove/rename one.

Hi All,

Am getting the following behaviour with a resurrected file. When I run cvs

Usually, but not always.  If the directory is already checked out, you

The files are html files from a web server.
I can't remove all and then check them out.
I'm thinking about intercept these files and
remove them, then check out again, but I'd

This would seem to mean that the files are already there.  Assuming
you're checking out into a clean directory, could you possibly be
checking the same files out twice?

If not, it probably means that you didn't clean out the directory

Why not?  That would seem to be the solution (or, actually, put

Move away it is in the way

2002-03-19 Thread Francesc Guasch Ortiz

I've spent many many time trying to deal with my problem.

I got some things in a repositoy that I want to be
checked out automatically once in a while. So I made
a perl script that does this.

I almost works, but I got some files that complain with

move away ... it is in the way.

All the other files work.

If I do a manual checkout it works.

If I remove the file and run the script it works, but
I don't want to do this.

I checked the environment vars: CVSROOT , CVS_RSH and the user
is the same.

What else should I check ?

Why would I get the below error message?

   cvs checkout: move away dir/file; it is in the way

Even checking the same file out twice does not cause this error.  However,
if you look at the examples below (note they all contain 2 dirs) on what
works on what does not work you can see a pattern.  First, it only happens
with the -D switch!  Second, specifying two directries with the second
directory being a subdirectory of the first.

The examples below are a simplified example of my modules file.  I tracked
it down this far, but to me it looks like a bug?

Could someone try the below examples on a newer version of CVS (my Linux

What version(s) of CVS are you using?  If you're not using the current

Thanks for this explanation! I still don't know what initially caused my 
problems, since I didn't do any changed to the CVS/Enrties file. Probably 
there was a problem here that I did not recognize, but, well, could it be 
that the problem was as follows:

Imagine the following example:

I have the following directory:

/kde-cvs

In that directory, I do "cvs co koffice", so I get

/kde-cvs/koffice

When being under the /kde-cvs directory and doing a "cvs upd koffice", I got 
the problem, HOWEVER, when being *in* /kde-cvs/koffice and running "cvs upd" 
it worked.

So, can it be possible, that while bing in /kde-cvs and running "cvs upd 
koffice", cvs somehow doesn't find the kde-cvs/koffice/CVS/Entries file, and 
so it things that all the files in the source repository are new, however, 
files with the same name already exist on my system and cvs doesn't know 
where they came from, so they are regarded as being in the way?

This would suggest that I would need a /kde-cvs/CVS/Enrties file that 
contains information about all the subdirectories under /kde-cvs...

Any comments on this?

Nils

Imagine the situation where there was a .y (yacc) file in the respository.
You run yacc and get a .c file.  Now someone adds the .c file to the
archive (maybe not everyone has yacc).  You do an update, and now the .c
file that you created is in the way of the new one added to the repository.

Ok, that's the situation that this is designed to cover.

However, if you notice in your CVS/ directory, you'll have a file called
Entries that has lines like the following:

/ANNOUNCE/1.48/Wed May  2 00:43:50 2001//D2001.11.03.08.00.00
/AUTHORS/1.12/Wed May 24 15:54:06 2000//D2001.11.03.08.00.00

(wine in this case, if anyone cares).

Now, if one of those lines was missing or corrupted some how, then cvs
would think that you didn't download the file from cvs but generated it
yourself, and it doesn't want to overwrite it.

Somehow, most likely, your CVS/Entries file got corrupted.

If this happens again, could you save off your CVS/* files and analyze
them.  Maybe something flaky happen (something stomped on them, ran out of
disk space, hit control-\ at just the right time while cvs was running, cvs
died on it's own).  If necessary, maybe post them to the list.

Meanwhile, if it's only a handful of files, you can manually delete the
files that are in the way, and do "cvs up" again and that should be
sufficient.  If it's a lot of files, it will probably be easier to rm -rf
the heirarchy and from the top level to a "cvs up -Pd".

move away , it is in the way

2001-05-22 Thread Nils Holland

Hi folks,

I have some strange problem, and I have heard reports of other users also 
getting it every now and then. Here's what happens:

I keep the sources of the K Desktop Environment on my Linux box under 
/usr/src/kde-cvs. Now, under that directory, I have done something like "cvs 
co koffice", which resulted in creating and filling up the directory 
/usr/src/kde-cvs/kdebase.

The problems starts when I want to update my sources. Again, I cd to 
/usr/src/kde-cvs and this time I do a "cvs up koffice". Then I get the 
following message for *each file* in the sources:

> kde-cvs@thunderbird:/usr/src/kde-cvs > cvs up koffice
> cvs update: move away koffice/.cvsignore; it is in the way
> C koffice/.cvsignore
> cvs update: move away koffice/AUTHORS; it is in the way
> C koffice/AUTHORS
> cvs update: move away koffice/COPYING; it is in the way
> C koffice/COPYING
> cvs update: move away koffice/COPYING.LIB; it is in the way
> C koffice/COPYING.LIB

Someone suggested that I re-checkout the sources as described above. Then, I 
should cd directly to /usr/src/kde-cvs/koffice and do a "cvs upd" there. This 
has worked - the above error message did not appear, and some files were 
properly updated. Still, I couldn't find any information about this "move 
away..." error message. If anyone on this mailing list can explain it to me 
and tell me why it initially occured and what I can do to prevent it from 
occuring again, I'd be very happy.
