Placing XMI files from CVS in directory structure

[morsor]

When configuring a package for CVS, EA suggests the location CVS_ROOT/<package-name>.xml

Instead of placing all packages in the root, we created a directory structure mimicking the project structure:

Model
- Requirements Model
-- Use Case Model
--- Use Cases
---- Use Case 1.xml
---- Use Case 2.xml
---- Use Case 3.xml

In the beginning, this went fine - but now all of a sudden EA just hangs after selecting the package XML file location and pressing OK.

It seems to be a CVS problem, as killing cvs.exe in the TaskManager brings up the confirmation window and the process resumes as normal, writing XMI to the file system under CVS control.

A CVS Update was performed before attempting to configure the packages for CVS - but no luck.

Any ideas? Or should the XMI files simply not be put into directories not under EA control?

Problem (apparently) solved.

Installing various CVS clients had added loads of junk to the environment variable PATH.

Editing it manually has solved the problem.
