Oy! You caught me. I am not the admin of the cvs server and I assumed *cough* that it was a Windows box. After reading your response, I decided to check my facts... it's a Solaris box. We use Windows server at my installation but the cvs box is elsewhere. They use Suns there.
I don't know how large the entire repository is, but my module is just under 1G. Is this large? I have the latest rev of CVSNT. -----Original Message----- From: Todd Denniston [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, May 27, 2005 10:02 AM To: Ennis, Tony Cc: 'info-cvs@gnu.org' Subject: Re: "Cannot rename file" error "Ennis, Tony" wrote: > > Hello, I am on Win2000, latest rev of cvsnt, using pserver to the repository > on a Windows box. > With this said, you will likely get better answers on the cvsnt mailing list. http://www.cvsnt.org/wiki http://www.cvsnt.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/cvsnt > When I check projects out, I am getting this error intermittantly: > > cvs checkout: Updating svs/apacherelease > U svs/apacherelease/apache_1.3.33.tar.gz > cvs [checkout aborted]: cannot rename file _new_apache_1.3.33.tar.gz to > apache_1 > .3.33.tar.gz: Bad address > > I have inherited a dubiously constructed repository, but for now... it is > what it is.

Between it working and now not working, have you updated to a newer cvsnt? The only similar experience I have ever had with regular cvs is when at 1.11.1p1->1.11.2 they changed to memmaping files and my solaris box had a broken memmap implementation, and then it only happened on the biggest of repositories with them machine under load. -- Todd Denniston Crane Division, Naval Surface Warfare Center (NSWC Crane) Harnessing the Power of Technology for the Warfighter _______________________________________________ Info-cvs mailing list Info-cvs@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs
