[Monotone-devel] misuse: branch "jp.co.juicbot.jp7" is empty

[viswesuwara.nathan]

Hi
       On giving 'checkout' command I am getting an error, saying.
                        mtn: misuse: branch 'jp.co.juicebot.jp7*' is
empty

FYI, I provided what I have done from scratch of creating the db.

The following was done by jim.
        To create the db.
                $ mtn db init --db=~/jim.mtn
                $ mtn db init --db=~/abe.mtn
        To create genkey.
                $ mtn genkey address@hidden
                $ mtn genkey address@hidden
        To create the project by Jim.
                $ mtn --db=jim.mtn --branch=jp.co.juicebot.jb7 setup
juice.
                $ cd juice
        To create a file
                jim\juice>$ edit jb.h
        To add the file in the db.
                jim\juice>$ mtn add jb.h
        To commit.
                jim\juice>$ mtn commit --message="initial checkin of
project"
                jim\juice>$ mtn heads
        To get public key of "abe" to be add in jim db
                jim\juice>$ mtn --db=abe.mtn pubkey address@hidden >
abe.pubkey
                jim\juice>$ type abe.pubkey | mnt --db=jim.mtn read
        To start server listening on 4691 port.
                jim\juice>$ mtn --db=jim.mtn serve "jp.co.juicebot.jb7*"
        

  The following was done by abe.
        To sync db of jim.
                abe>$ mtn.exe --db=abe.mtn sync localhost
"jp.co.juicebot.jb7*"
        To get the file from jim.
                abe>$ mtn.exe --db=abe.mtn --branch=jp.co.juicebot.jb7
checkout
Error:          mtn: misuse: branch 'jp.co.juicebot.jp7*' is empty


          On issuing the "ls branch" command from jim workspace, I got
"jp.co.juicebot.jb7" and on issuing "db info" command I got this

schema version    : 9d2b5d7b86df00c30ac34fe87a3c20f1195bb2df
counts:
  full rosters    : 1
  roster deltas   : 0
  full files      : 3
  file deltas     : 0
  revisions       : 1
  ancestry edges  : 1
  certs           : 4
bytes:
  full rosters    : 336
  roster deltas   : 0
  full files      : 517
  file deltas     : 0
  revisions       : 286
  cached ancestry : 40
  certs           : 990
  total           : 2169
database:
  page size       : 8192
  cache size      : 2000

I also want to know whether Abe has to create workspace before issuing
"sycn" command. I have given all the info from creating the database, as
I was not able to get the solution for this problem so far.

Need your valuble suggestions.
