Can't copy 'man3\.svn\tmp\text-base\qpicture.3qt.svn-base'

[cppjavaperl <cp...@yahoo.com>]

Hello everyone,

  While trying to checkout Qt 3.3.3 from my own local repository, I got
this error message (the ... indicates paths I've shortened):

svn: Can't copy '...man3\.svn\tmp\text-base\qpicture.3qt.svn-base' to
'...man3\qpicture.3qt.tmp': The system cannot find the file specified.

So, I did a Google search, and found out that others are having the
same problem (with Qt in a different repository):

http://lists.kde.org/?l=kde-devel&m=111874813312841&w=4

Hello,

While checking out qt-copy from SVN using this command:
svn co https://svn.kde.org/home/kde/trunk/qt-copy

I get the following error message (after it has checked out a large 
portion of qt-copy successfully):

A  qt-copy/doc/man/man3/QBig5Codec.3qt
A  qt-copy/doc/man/man3/qxmllocator.3qt
subversion/libsvn_wc/log.c:329: (apr_err=155009)
svn: In directory 'qt-copy/doc/man/man3'
subversion/libsvn_subr/io.c:548: (apr_err=2)
svn: Can't copy 
'qt-copy/doc/man/man3/.svn/tmp/text-base/qpicture.3qt.svn-base' to 
'qt-copy/doc/man/man3/qpicture.3qt.tmp': No such file or directory

If I then try to 'cd qt-copy; svn up', I get:

subversion/libsvn_wc/lock.c:157: (apr_err=155004)
svn: Working copy 'doc/man/man3' locked
svn: run 'svn cleanup' to remove locks (type 'svn help cleanup' for
details)

<end-quoting>


So, I decided to try checking out from another repository also, and
found the anonymous svn access for KDE.  I ran the following command...

svn co svn://anonsvn.kde.org/home/kde/trunk/qt-copy/doc/man/man3

... and got the following error message:

svn: Can't copy 'man3\.svn\tmp\text-base\qpicture.3qt.svn-base' to
'man3\qpicture.3qt.tmp': The system cannot find the file specified.

Bingo!  It was the exact same problem I had.

I only get this error when I check out on a Windows 2000 box.  The
Windows 2000 machine has the latest Subversion client binaries -- 1.2.0
(downloaded from the subversion.tigris.org website).

My Subversion server is running on a Suse 9.1 Linux box.  The
Subversion  version on the server is 1.1.2.  The Subversion client on
the Linux box, is (as would be expected) also version 1.1.2.  When I
checkout to a local directory on the Linux box (the same one hosting
the server process), I don't have any trouble.  I suspect that the
problem is the different version of Subversion client vs. Subversion
server, but have not verified that yet.

Here are the version/revision numbers for each of the two machines:

Windows 2000 Box (subversion client): version 1.2.0  (r14790)
Linux Box (subversion client): version 1.1.2 (r12471)
Linux Box (subversion server): version 1.1.2 (r12471)

Acting on the hunch that it was a problem of mismatching client/server
versions, I installed version 1.1.2 (r12471) of the Subversion client
on my Windows 2000 box.  But alas, no dice, even with the matching
client for Windows 2000.  I ran the following command (again)...

svn co svn://anonsvn.kde.org/home/kde/trunk/qt-copy/doc/man/man3

... and got the following error message:

svn: Can't copy 'man3\.svn\tmp\text-base\qpicture.3qt.svn-base' to
'man3\qpicture.3qt.tmp': The system cannot find the file specified.

Sigh.

Anyone have any idea what's causing this?  I got the same results (as I
expected I would) whether running 'svn' from the command line or using
Tortoise SVN from the GUI in Windows 2000.

the problem is that path in the repository contains both "QPicture.3qt" and
"qpicture.3qt", so you have a conflict over the filenames in windows 2000
when you try to checkout.

You can see what's in the directory using the TortoiseSVN browser with the
path you give.
