5 CVS usage issue - ID: 766139
Last Update: Settings changed ( moorman )

I'm admin of project cxterm, didn't use cvs for a
while, but now
I suddenly found I don't have permission to commit cvs,
received
complaint that I don't have write permission on the
repository.

Please help.

FYI, I used the following command under BASH,

> export CVS_RSH=ssh
> export
CVSROOT=:ext:xucs@cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/cxterm
> cvs login
> cvs commit -m "some message"

cvs [server aborted]: "commit" requires write access to
the repository

Thanks for your quick response, after following your tip,
problem solved.

I do need check out a version using :ext method.

Please provide the output from:

cvs -t commit -m "some message"

A tip that may be relevant:

In order to perform a commit, you must be working against a
CVS working copy that has been /checked out/ using SSH
authentication -- if you used pserver auth for your
checkout, you must checkout a fresh working copy (you can
move modified files over from the old working copy to the
new, then commit).

Thank you,
