V 1.3.22: CVS Checkout from local: No such file or directory

[Birgit Guder]

Hi,

I tried to setup cvs server on my windows 98 machine through cygwin. However
I could not even manage to get the basics of cvs working. I create a new
repository with:

$ cvs -d/cygdrive/d/data/cvs init

The directory /cygdrive/d/data/cvs exists and contains now a subdirectory
named CVSROOT.
When I try to checkout the CVSROOT module , I get an error message "No such
file or directory".

$ cvs -d/cygdrive/d/data/cvs checkout CVSROOT
cvs checkout: Updating CVSROOT
cvs checkout: cannot create read lock in repository
`/cygdrive/d/data/cvs/CVSROOT': No such file or directory
cvs [checkout aborted]: read lock failed - giving up


What is going wrong here?

Birgit
