Hi Mike
An option is to simply erase the bad ,v files from the repository and
add them again from the client. This will create two new ,v files that
should be sound.
This will of cause nuke any history on those files including tags and
branches, but I suppose you can live with that.
As always, when manipulating the repository directly:
PROCEED WITH CARE!
Good Luck

Subject: Repository troubles - expert help needed
I am having serious problems, and need help. I suspect that my
repository is
corrupted. I would like to know what to do to fix it.
As part of the project documentation, I checked in the WinCVS
user's guide.
This is 1 html file, wincvs11.htm, and about 60 images named Image*.jpg
(numbered 1-63 with a few missing). The problem is with Image55.jpg and
possibly Image56.jpg. I found that I could get logs on Image57.jpg and
Image54.jpg, but not those two. I also could get logs on other randomly
sampled files. It seems that any operation on the directory will fail
when it
gets to Image55.jpg:
cvs update -P (in directory C:\dssi\cameras\cam1\tools\doc\WinCVS\)
cvs update: Updating .
cvs update: nothing known about Image55.jpg
I am seeing a process crash (I suspect that it's the spawned CVS
process)
whenever I try to update the directory. After the crash, there is a new
file
left in the repository such as:
#cvs.rfl.fluffy(mike).1208
My machine is fluffy and my username is mike.
When I cd into the repository directory and `more` the files, I
notice that all
the files have headers:
<SNIP>
head 1.1;
access;
symbols
dssi-cam1-0_3:1.1
dssi-cam1-0_2:1.1;
locks; strict;
comment @# @;
expand @b@;
1.1
date 2002.06.25.15.30.51; author mike; state Exp;
branches;
next ;
desc
@@
1.1
log
@Cumulative update
@
text
</SNIP>
EXCEPT Image55.jpg,v and Image56.jpg,v! I think I'm getting
warm here...
The real issue, though, is how to correct this problem without
disturbing the
rest of the repository.
Gurus?
