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.

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.

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?

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". mrc -- Mike Castle Life is like a clock: You can work constantly [EMAIL PROTECTED] and be right all the time, or not work at all www.netcom.com/~dalgoda/ and be right at least twice a day. -- mrc We are all of us living in the shadow of Manhattan. -- Watchmen ___ Info-cvs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs

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.
