Re: cvs corrupts file while tagging

[rush]

   Hi,

   I moved the repository to a local drive and tried it again. cvs still
   corrupts file.

   е║

   I have installed 32bit cvs, but my system is 64bit. I tested in on
   another machine with 32bit cvs and 64bit system and caught the same
   behaviour.

   Then I switched to 64bit version and voila, everything works fine.

   е║

   So it looks like a bug in 32bit version.

   I'm not sure if I should attach the trace or just to provide a link to
   something like pastebin.
   So here it is the debug output with 32bit cvs with repository on local
   drive: [1]http://pastebin.com/N2tn10qk

   Right after tag I get corrupted file and message on client side:

   cvs [rlog aborted]: EOF while looking for end of string in RCS file
   /home/user/cvs_test/project/file.bin,v

   wbr,

     Is it possible to move the repository to a 'local' disk and re-run
     the test?
     If the problem still occurs on a 'local' disk, can you generate a
     trace?
     е║е║cvs -ttt rtag -B -a -F -r 1.526 -b "my_tag" project/file.bin 2>&1
     > /tmp/my_trace.txt
     The CVS repository is like a 'database' - you wouldn't put an oracle
     database on an NFS share (or a Samba share) and neither should your
     CVS repository be there.
     Regards,
     Arthur

     е║е║е║е║е║е║Is the repository mounted on a shared drive?
     е║е║е║е║Repository files are on nfs drive.
     е║е║е║е║Check the sticky tags on the file to ensure it has the binary
     tag
     е║е║е║е║applied (-kb).
     е║е║е║е║Yes, the file has binary tag. In cvs log I can find :
