Hi all,
While trying to do a subversion operation from a MacOSX machine
within a
volume mounted from a WinXP share, I am getting the following error:
subversion/libsvn_subr/io.c:2137: (apr_err=5)
svnadmin: Can't write to file 'rfs-draft/db/write-lock': Input/
output error
It looks like locking isn't supported within APR on MacOSX, or
maybe this
is a pure MacOSX limitation.
Probably merely that file locking over SMB/CIFS doesn't work properly,
though the error message is weird, suggesting that it's a write()
failure rather than a failure-to-lock. truss/strace might help show
what syscall is failing if OS X has such a tool.
OS X has ktrace and kdump, which together can provide a trace of
various things including syscalls.
