CVS Checkout fails

I'm getting the following error when checking out modules
from CVS (with label):

All the files int the CVS module are listed here,
...then....
cvs checkout: cannot open CVS/Entries for reading: No such
file or directory

I don't get this if no label is specified. 
Is this normal behavior?

Hello,
no this is not normal behavior.
Can you please run ant in verbose mode (ant -verbose) and capture the
command line with which cvs gets started.
Cheers

Look at the line preceding that one in the output. That should tell you the 
directory CVS was in when it encountered that error. Then take a look at its 
subdirectories. Look for local versions (created manually, not checked out) 
of a subdirectory which also exists in the CVS repository. That could be 
your problem. 
 This is more of a CVS question than an Ant question. If you are still 
stumped, try the CVS lists at https://savannah.nongnu.org/mail/?group=cvs
