CVS

by Kevin O · in Torque Game Engine · 02/18/2003 (11:49 am) · 1 replies

I've been trying to download the realmwars source following the "using wincvs" instructions but I get:

cvs checkout: in directory .:
cvs [checkout aborted]: *PANIC* administration files missing

I get the same thing when trying to download torque.

I also get:
TCL is *not* available, shell is disabled

Is anyone else getting this?

Kevin,

The usual causes for the CVS message administration files missing are:

1) There is a directory named CVS with nothing in it in your local repository.
2) Your local repository is corrupt.

Your easiest solution is to do a checkout into a clean empty directory.
