Check out (lock) problems by using ea and svn

[tobinho]

Hello Everybody,

i have some problems with the version control mechanism of ea using subversion as version control.

I put some subpackages under version control like mentioned in the ea help. At begin everything seems to be fine. After some tests i got an error by check-out a package from the version control.  The error occurs after ea crashes by an check-out from a subpackages before.


First of all my config:

OS: Windows XP SP2
EA: 7.0.818
Subversion Client: CollabNet Version 1.5.5

EA Error Description:

The ability to import is currently locked by user: MYPCNAME
(currentuser)


I tried to disable all locks via the security-manage locks window. But after releasing all locks manuell - the error still there.

I have no idea how to handle that. Have anyone a advice for me


Thanks a lot.

Greetings

locks are also an SVN concept.

Look the SVN menu. Perhaps "check for modifications" will show the locks. If not, look in SVN help for "lock".

I have had SVN locking problems (perhaps a different error than you are seeing now). It happened when I tried to use EA in an SVN working copy when there was another working copy (e.g. on another machine) in which I had done an EA package checkout. If you abandon an SVN working copy of an EA project, be sure to uncheckout or checkin.

Dunno if this is helpful for your error.

Regards,

Solution for Problem:

Do not loggin to svn server permanently on 2 network clients with the same user !!!

I created another svn server user for the second remote client and then it works.


Now i have problems with large packages and including references - import/export very slow and often ea crashes !!

Anyone an idea??
