I can't update the GUI module completely, because of strange bad access rights for a lock folder used in CVS: cvs server: Updating com/limegroup/gnutella/gui/themes cvs server: failed to create lock directory for `/cvs/gui/com/limegroup/gnutella/gui/themes' (/usr/local/tigris/data/helm/cvs/lock/gui/com/limegroup/gnutella/gui/themes/#cvs.lock): Permission denied cvs server: failed to obtain dir lock in repository `/cvs/gui/com/limegroup/gnutella/gui/themes' cvs [server aborted]: read lock failed - giving up Apparently, the .../cvs/lock/... directory was created by the wrong user, and denies access to users in the group normally granted update accesses to the GUI module. (note that the user "guest" is part of that group which should be able to get locks to perform updates, even if it is not granted additions/deletions/commit) Because of this lock, that occurs only for that subfolder, the following folders after "/gui/themes" are not updated, and must be updated separately... This is new, because in the past even "guest" could update its sources... Only LimeWire admins can correct this by checking the Unix folder ownerships and access rights in the cvs/lock folder indicated above. _______________________________________________ gui-dev mailing list [email protected] http://www.limewire.org/mailman/listinfo/gui-dev
