Hallo,

I'm looking for help. Actually it is not my first cvs system I set up, but the problem is new to me.

I have a Suse 10.1 root server. There I install cvs, I tried the standard yast installation (seems to install a suse-patched cvs 1.12.12) and I tried a self-compiled 1.12.13. Both results in the same problem.

I'm logged in as root (with other users it is the same) and I try to create a new repository with the command

cvs -d /root/cvs init

The result is

cvs [init aborted]: cannot get working directory: File exists

The same result I get if I try any other command and with different user accounts. I also tried the

cvs -t -f -d /root/cvs init

options. Then I get

  -> main: Session ID is L7NaPCpnLvgrC7rs
cvs [init aborted]: cannot get working directory: File exists

with google etc I did not found any hint, so I hope that someone here could help me. Is there anyone who have a similiar problem? And a solution ? Or ca I tackle the problem trough changes in the source code?

Regards
Frank
