I’m developing a web using subversion as version control, but got “working directory locked” error message
Here’s the story:
I have
PC-A:
- Windows XP Pro
- VisualSVN 2.5.2
- Tortoise SVN 1.7.3
PC-B:
- Windows XP Home
- Tortoise SVN 1.7.3
I have create repository on PC-A using VisualSVN.
From PC-B, I Checkout http:\\PC-A:81\svn\test\trunk to D:\xampp\htdocs\test-lalala.
From PC-A, I also checkout http:\\PC-A:81\svn\test\trunk to D:\xampp\htdocs\test-lalala.
I Create a post-commit hooks running my-post-commit.bat file so when I commit to http:\\PC-A:81\svn\test\trunk, folder D:\xampp\htdocs\test-lalalaon PC-A will updated, so other people can see the result.
"C:\Program Files\VisualSVN Server\bin\svn.exe" update "D:\xampp\htdocs\test-lalala" --username myusername --password mypassword --config-dir "C:\Program Files\VisualSVN Server\conf"
On PC-B, Create index.php file, and commit. When I commit, I get this error message
On PC-A, I try to right-click on D:\xampp\htdocs\test-lalala TortoiseSVN > CleanUp, and check “cleanup working copy status” and “Include externals” (checked by default). Try to add file and commit, but still got the same error message.
I try to look for lock file on .svn folder but there are no lock file. I also try to delete working copy on PC-A D:\xampp\htdocs\test-lalala and checkout again, but when I commit, still got the same error message.
How to solve this error message? So when I commit, the folder will updated automatically ?
I ended up using export command rather than update command. This is the post-commit hook
“C:\Program Files\VisualSVN Server\bin\svn.exe” export “D:\xampp\htdocs\test-lalala” –quiet –non-interactive –force –username myusername –password mypassword
