I encountered the same error message, apparently for a different reason. I was trying to submit a review request in a branch with 2278 files added/changed, including many binary files. this is with ReviewBoard 2.5.10, which is unfortunately still running on SQLite... Still working through some issues migrating that but the point I wanted to make here is that I suspect that the problem is a performance issue in this case.
It seems that rbt is reporting that a file was not found when the more likely scenario(in my inexpert opinion, based on an observation that the file DOES exist + using SQLite + huge change) is that the attempt to generate the diff simply timed out. Below is the output: $ rbt commit -a You are on the branch: ENG-22573 This will be the first COMMIT/PUSH to ENG-22573. Will stamp request. Enter Commit message, or <CR> to open editor for commit message. -> Removing unnecessary constraints in cleanup You entered a commit message.
