WinCVS "In the way" Update Problem

[David L. Martin]

Greetings,   I'm using WinCVS 1.1b13 on NT in pserver mode against a Solaris 2.6 server running cvs 1.10.8.  I have a checkout area in which I only perform "cvs update -Pd" (no editing is done in this area).  Occasionally for some directories I get the following error for each file in the directory, such as:   cvs server: Updating ics/infra/src/com/ec/infra/busproc/addressbook/exception cvs update: move away ics/infra/src/com/ec/infra/busproc/addressbook/exception/AddressbookBusinessException.java; it is in the way C ics/infra/src/com/ec/infra/busproc/addressbook/exception/AddressbookBusinessException.java cvs update: move away ics/infra/src/com/ec/infra/busproc/addressbook/exception/AddressbookException.java; it is in the way C ics/infra/src/com/ec/infra/busproc/addressbook/exception/AddressbookException.java   I understand why this error is normally generated (when the user has manually created a directory which CVS does not recognize from its Entries file as having created, and CVS subsequently tries to create the directory as a result of a cvs update).  For this case, however, no manual editing has been done in the working area.   Looking at the CVS/Entries file under addressbook, there is no directory entry for "exception"; therein lies the problem.  For some reason, during the checkout or update -d in which the exception directory was originally created, the Entries or Entries.log file was not properly modified to include "exception".  The workaround is to delete the exception directory and update again, at which time the Entries.log is created and then on subsequent update, the Entries file is appropriately modified.   Has anyone else seen this problem?   Thanks, David
