CVSUP causing locks on the database.

[Gaganinder Singh]

Hi,

 

Can someone please through some light on the following message on CVS Client clients application.  

 

“cvs commit: [05:41:10] waiting for xyz's lock in /CVS/Dev/1.0/app“

 

XYZ is the system user to which all the CVS users are mapped using pserver to access the /Dev/1.0 repository. While CVSUP is running is it possible that it creates locks on the database which restricts users from getting to the files and folders.  CVSUP is running using root.

 

Regards,

Gaganinder Singh.
