file stat error
Hi,
I don't know much about SVN, so please forgive me if this is a stupid
question...
A couple of weeks ago, we moved from a Samba 2.2x to a 3.0.x server.
Everything works fine, except our svn.
SVN is not able to make a file writable.
However, we can change the read-only flag manually on a Windows XP client.
When we try to lock a file with TurtoiseSVN, we get the following error:
Error: Can't get default file perms for file at
'//rebel/milesweb/Sites/svntest2/mbl.pbl' (file stat error): Access is
denied.
Can somebody help us out?
Thank you very much!!!
Kind Regards,
Tom

Ah, yes, there actually are still several calls in Subversion to look at
file permissions (we just changed a few that were doing it unnecessarily
while toggling the read-only attribute) -- my mistake, sorry.
What version of APR are you using? There is a patch that fixes a Win32
permission issue in APR -- I'm not sure if it would help or not, though.
You might try the latest APR and the patch:

Since it's Samba that changed behavior, try looking at its options for
a workaround. I'm not aware of any way to change Subversion's
behavior in this respect (aside from using a different version).

Hi,
Thank you very much!
I've just downloaded the trunk and I'll check it out!!
However, isn't there a "work-around" for this problem?
I'm not allowed to upgrade our subversion (1.2.1) before a couple of
months of testing the new version...
Thanks in Advance!!!
Kind Regards,
Tom

This behavior has been changed on Subversion trunk -- Subversion no
longer tries to look at or change permissions on Win32, it just flips
the read-only attribute around. Can you try trunk to make sure it's
fixed?
