Rajesh is trying to submit a new localization to hi-IN and gets the following 
CVS error on the l10n repository:

failed to create lock directory for `/l10n/l10n/hi-IN/browser/chrome/branding' (/l10n/l10n/hi-IN/browser/chrome/branding/#cvs.lock): No such file or directory
cvs commit: lock failed - giving up

This sounds like the error I got when I tried to commit to the l10n repository when I only had access to the main repository. Has that account worked in the past?

Comment 2

[Axel Hecht [:Pike]]

Rajesh's account was just created, bug 300569.

He is set up for the l10n group and not the main source tree...

Comment 4

[:Gavin Sharp [email: [e-mail]]]

Is the "/l10n/l10n/" part of the error message right? Is the local tree just messed up or something?

There is no branding directory in CVS.  He probably forgot to add that directory before he tried to check stuff in.  Here is the directory listing.  That l10n/l10n seems to be right (and not an error in the setup).


[root@megalon chrome]# pwd
/data/cvs/jail/l10n/l10n/hi-IN/browser/chrome
[root@megalon chrome]# ls -l

No idea what happened, I added the directory from my working copy and it worked.
Somehow the cvs add command from Rajesh must have been confused on that
directory.
Sorry for bothering.
