Gosh, I wish I were a CVS expert. I know I've seen this, I just can't recall how/when. Does CVS use ~/.cvspass for updates, or what is stored in the ./CVS directories?
I see it is a status check (the -n for no work) looking for differences (updates) between local and remote. As such, something exists in your workspace CVS directory making Gump think it ought simply do an update. Could it be that somehow the original checkout failed, and there is an empty directory left around. Or, could you have checked out the code using some other configuration? Anybody else able to help here? I'm used to Nick coming to my rescue w/ CVS, but he's otherwise busy right now... regards, Adam ----- Original Message ----- From: "Claus Pedersen" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Gump code and data" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, June 03, 2004 7:37 AM Subject: RE: CVS password > I deleted the ~/.cvspass, but it still gives me the following error: > > Command Line > > cvs -q -n -z3 -d :pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:2401/usr/cvsroot update -P > -d -A > > Output > cvs update: Empty password used - try 'cvs login' with a real password > > cvs [update aborted]: authorization failed: server xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx > rejected access to /usr/cvsroot for user xxx > > regards, > > Claus > > -----Oprindelig meddelelse----- > Fra: Adam R.
