Using WEBDAV mount as sandbox for CVS

[Manjoine, Chris]

I am working off a webdav mount for testing of changes to my code.

I have the repository set up, but can not get the cvs to checkout the
files from the repository to the webdav mount.

 

I use the web dav mount to test the code on a web server, which i can
not run on my coding system

 

I can get checkout to work quite fine on the local disk .eg.
~username/public_html

 

But it will not checkout to a webdav mount e.g.
/Volumes/dev.testserver.com/public_html 

 

Is there some serious incompatibility between WEBDAV and CVS? Would I
run into the same problem if I use SAMBA?

 

I am using the most current stable of CVS

 

The error I am getting is:

 

Cvs [checkout aborted]: cannot get working directory: No such file or
directory.

 

I said it is not a problem with the CVSROOT path as it works fine to the
local disk. Only when I try and checkout to the WEBDAV mount, so it is
not the bug with the '/' at the end of cvsroot

 

Any help would be appreciated
