Thanks. I'm stuck using E:\ unless I can get the admins of the server to give me access to the directory above. I may not have pointed this out, but E:\ is a mapped drive to something like \\servername\TATS. Working in a local folder like C:\Projects\TATS and creating a local virtual drive won't do me any good because the server will never know about any of the files. And yes, I should be running this as a client/server but for now I can't get CVS on the server. -J -----Original Message----- From: Bo Berglund [mailto:Bo.Berglund at system3r.se] Sent: Monday, March 27, 2006 10:14 AM To: Kraly, Jay (Contractor); cvsnt at cvsnt.org cvsnt downloads at march-hare.com @CVSNT on Twitter CVSNT on Facebook Subject: RE: [cvsnt] local repository checkout problem No, you want to use a checkout path that is acceptable to CVS. This means *not* directly below a drive root. For example C:\Projects\TATS Then for whatever other purposes you need the drive root placement you create a subst drive: subst T: C:\Projects\TATS Now you can work with CVS inside the C:\Projects\TATS folder and with whatever you have that requires direct drive location from T: Best regards, Bo Berglund -----Original Message----- From: cvsnt-bounces at cvsnt.org [mailto:cvsnt-bounces at cvsnt.org] On Behalf Of Kraly, Jay (Contractor) Sent: den 27 mars 2006 16:55 To: cvsnt at cvsnt.org cvsnt downloads at march-hare.com @CVSNT on Twitter CVSNT on Facebook Subject: RE: [cvsnt] local repository checkout problem Never knew that command existed, thanks. But won't it accomplish the opposite of what I need? I need a virtual path like "F:\TATS" which points to "E:\". -----Original Message----- From: cvsnt-bounces at cvsnt.org [mailto:cvsnt-bounces at cvsnt.org]On Behalf Of Anderson, Allan Sent: Friday, March 24, 2006 6:05 PM To: 'cvsnt at cvsnt.org cvsnt downloads at march-hare.com @CVSNT on Twitter CVSNT on Facebook' Subject: RE: [cvsnt] local repository checkout problem Unrelated to CVS, you could checkout someplace and then use the Windows command-line "subst" command to assign your TATS directory to a virtual drive. -----Original Message----- From: cvsnt-bounces at cvsnt.org [mailto:cvsnt-bounces at cvsnt.org] On Behalf Of Kraly, Jay (Contractor) Sent: Friday, March 24, 2006 2:54 PM To: cvsnt at cvsnt.org cvsnt downloads at march-hare.com @CVSNT on Twitter CVSNT on Facebook Subject: [cvsnt] local repository checkout problem I'm having a problem checking out a module to a local repository. The command used is "cvs checkout -d E:\ TATS". I'm trying to checkout the module to the windows E:\ drive without the module name "TATS" as the top folder. It creates the top-level files successfully, but as soon as it gets to the first folder it starts recursing on the E:\ drive. The status messages look something like U E:/white_no.gif U E:/white_up.gif cvs checkout: Updating E:/E: cvs checkout: Updating E:/E:/E: cvs checkout: Updating E:/E:/E:/E: cvs checkout: Updating E:/E:/E:/E:/E: cvs checkout: Updating E:/E:/E:/E:/E:/E: ...on and on... Everything works fine using "cvs checkout TATS", however it creates all the files under E:\TATS instead of E:\. Any ideas? -J _______________________________________________ cvsnt mailing list cvsnt at cvsnt.org cvsnt downloads at march-hare.com @CVSNT on Twitter CVSNT on Facebook http://www.cvsnt.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/cvsnt https://www.march-hare.com/cvspro/en.asp#downcvs _______________________________________________ cvsnt mailing list cvsnt at cvsnt.org cvsnt downloads at march-hare.com @CVSNT on Twitter CVSNT on Facebook http://www.cvsnt.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/cvsnt https://www.march-hare.com/cvspro/en.asp#downcvs _______________________________________________ cvsnt mailing list cvsnt at cvsnt.org cvsnt downloads at march-hare.com @CVSNT on Twitter CVSNT on Facebook http://www.cvsnt.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/cvsnt https://www.march-hare.com/cvspro/en.asp#downcvs
