RE: Plea for help with 1.11.2

[Vince Rice]

CVSROOT is set to :local:e:\cvs\.  I'm not sure what else you want to know;
the repository has existed for over a year (created with 1.10).  All of the
CVS/Root files are correct.  I have no trouble with the repository using
1.10, nor do I have trouble checking *out* with 1.11.2.  I just can't do
anything that changes the repository (commit, admin, tag, etc.) with 1.11.2.

I'm using the most recent version released on cvshome.

Thanks!

Vince

This is a very familiar error message.  I remember getting it with one
of these versions I used.

How are you setting up your local repository?  ie. CVSROOT is
set to... etc?
