Description Vivian Kong CLA 2010-06-29 15:48:42 EDT
We recently changed our build script to tag everything under org.eclipse.cdt in CVS and I got the following error when I try to run a build:

      [cvs] cvs [rtag aborted]: could not open lock file `/cvsroot/tools/org.eclipse.cdt/cppunit/org.eclipse.cdt.cppunit/,.classpath,': Permission denied

Not sure why this is happening as I'm already in the cdtadmin group.  My user ID is vkong.
Comment 1 Eclipse Webmaster CLA 2010-06-29 16:23:10 EDT
Well the files in /cvsroot/tools/org.eclipse.cdt/cppunit/org.eclipse.cdt.cppunit aren't owned by cdtadmin, but by the cdt-cppunit group, and since you aren't a member I'm guessing that's what's causing the problem.

Doug would you like me to add Vivian to the cdt-cppunit group, and any others she may need to be a member of to complete the build?

-M.
Comment 2 Doug Schaefer CLA 2010-06-29 17:37:48 EDT
Actually change the ownership of those plugins to cdt-platform. We merged the CDT committer groups many years ago and only have one. I guess the cppunit stuff, which is long dead, missed the conversion.

Ok, done.
