The website only seemed to have lists about the development of CVS, and I didn't find a "user discussion list" or anything of that sort. I'm no pro on CVS, so this question may have a simple answer. I had a CVS repository on my server that was under /usr/home/cvsroot and I was using it for almost a year for two projects. A month or so ago, we upgraded this server with a newer/faster/larger HDD, and the CVS repository moved to /home/cvsroot (since the new HDD had a slightly different partitioning scheme) With a few tweaks, my repositories were able to communicate to the new CVS server (via pserver) with no problems, all is as it was. Until I tried to add a new project to the repository this morning. I use "cvs import" and the result is "/usr/home/cvsroot: no such repository" If I use cvs login, it says I'm logging into /usr/home/cvsroot as well. If I give the command thusly: cvs import -d :pserver:uname@hostname:/home/cvsroot import proj x y it works as expected, but even then, any other cvs commands compalain of the nonexistent /usr/home/cvsroot directory, unless I use the -d option. I've checked everywhere I can think of (.cvspass, files in the CVS directories of other projects, the inetd config that starts pserver on the CVS server) and can find no reference to /usr/home/cvsroot, everything is configured for /home/cvsroot What am I missing? I know I could just create a symlink /usr/home to patch the problem. But I'd rather learn what I did wrong and fix it than hack around it.
