Corrupted file is very unlikely situation. With previous versions we had the following cases: Sometimes server-side cvs.exe crashed and displayed the dialog "do you want to send crash dump". And the locks were kept by the lockserver because the process is not terminated. As far as I remember I had to restart the services and kill cvs.exeprocesses on the server. Probably that is the case for you too. When you are able to commit the file later means that cvs.exe on the server is closed it's dialog by timeout and terminated. To be sure you can look at the cvs.exe processes on the server just after the crash. Hope that helps, Alex
