We just upgraded to .34 and have been having the same problem. The problem seems to affect people randomly. I just got the error myself while adding new files to CVS. I did a add and one file got added and one file gave me the LOCK error. Basically this happend with a jpg file. Here is what happened: 1) 2 files: Login.jpg, Test.css 2) I did a cvs remove of both files and then a cvs commit 3) add a new file login.jpg and cas.css (basically I renamed the files) 4) got a lock error on login.jpg I looked on the server and there was still a Login.jpg,v and Test.css,v file in the directory. I expected these to be in the attic but there was no Attic. So I just deleted the Login.jpg,v file. When I checked in again I did not get the error. Note really sure what happened. We have also got the problem while just commiting changes to a existing file. Any ideas?
