Hello everyone. I get the same error now, and no complicated modules are involved. What is involved is "cvs rename". I have a folder structure in my repository like root\a\b\c. I had a file in directory "b", which I first moved to directory "a" using cvs rename. Then later I moved it to directory "c" using cvs rename again. Now I get the "nothing known about ..." error every time I update my sandbox. How do I get rid of it? /Jakob "Bo Berglund" <Bo.Berglund at system3r.se> wrote in message news:mailman.15.1087570822.21094.cvsnt at cvsnt.org... I have set up a new module for a program I need to write. This is not defined in any modules or modules2 file, insetad I have just added the folder and the files of this Delphi project to an existing module. But this project needs a rather complex set of dependent files from other modules in several repositories (that's why modules or modules2 will not work). So I have created a batch file to check out the dependent files into subfolders in the new module. So right now I have: MainModule |- A |- B |- C |- D |- E |- F Some of these dependent modules are checked out in extenso (all contained files). But in some of them I have only needed a few files so I arranged the batch file to check out only the wanted files. This works fine until I want to do an update from MainModule. At this time I get this response (with the real file/folder names): cvs server: Updating .
