If you can log into the server machine, you can probably get a listing of available disk space with "df -k". There are two devices to note in particular, the one where the CVS repository lives and the one where "/tmp" lives. If not, ask the person who administers that to check those. The last time I had that problem, it turned out that some broken connections were filling up /tmp with outdated CVS files, and so the admins set up a cron job to use "find" to remove files from /tmp that were more than two days old. I can supply more details if you need them. If the repository is full, which I would guess from the error messages below, then you'll need to either get a bigger disk or clear out more space on the one it's on. > On Wed, 2002-05-15 at 05:03, Nicolas PEZRON wrote: > > Hello, > > > > I have the following error from WinCVS : > > cvs server: cannot close > > /cvs/CIDRE/Windows/Dev1/Lettre d'accompagnement > > faciale DOREMI.rep,v: No space left on device > > cvs server: ERROR: cannot write file > > /cvs/CIDRE/Windows/Dev1/Lettre d'accompagnement > > faciale DOREMI.rep,v: No space left on device > > cvs [server aborted]: ERROR: out of space - aborting > > > > in fact, I think that there is a limit size in order > > to import modules to CVS...

(Yes, they should have been refactored to a larger number of much smaller files.) _______________________________________________ Info-cvs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs
