trouble with cvsup

2006-08-03 Thread Jonathan Horne
(resent, as i was in too much of a hurry this morning, and forgot to add a
subject line)

im having a problem with cvsup-ing my existing sources.  if i update an
existing set, i get this:

 -=(oo)=(cvsup18.us.freebsd.org)=-

Parsing supfile /root/stable-supfile
Connecting to cvsup15.us.freebsd.org

i use the stable-supfile, but with one changed line, to get me to RELENG:

*default release=cvs tag=RELENG_6_1

command i use to cvsup is as such:

cvsup -L 2 -h `(fastest_cvsup -q -c us )` /root/stable-supfile

and my system is:

FreeBSD zeus.dfwlp.com 6.1-RELEASE-p2 FreeBSD 6.1-RELEASE-p2 #0: Thu Jun
29 00:56:08 CDT 2006 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/ZEUS
 i386

last night i wanted to recompile the kernel, so that the next time i
reboot ill have p3.  when i cvsup'd my existing set, i got the above
error.  so i did a rm -rf /usr/src/*, cvsup'd again, and no issues.  put a
backup of my kernel conf file in there, and away i went.  i kinda thought
nothing of it until this morning, when just for kicks, i did another cvsup
on the same box, and got the updating error again.

none of my other boxes get an error like this, they all peform a normal
cvs updating operation.

any ideas?

tia,
jonathan

As far as I know, /usr/local/etc/cvsup is normally only used for
cvsupd.  Are you running that?  The regular stable-supfile shouldn't
touch that, ever.

I suppose you could look at the cvs checkouts file (in /var/db/sup by
default, I think) to see if that path shows up in there.

Apparently, something is corrupting your database.

Looks like cvsup15.us.freebsd.org has some file corruption. Try using  
a different CVSUp mirror instead.

RELENG:

Not sure I understand what you'd like to achieve: if you want FreeBSD- 
stable, then the tag should be RELENG_6.  If you want to track the  
security branch, then RELENG_6_1 is correct.
