Looks like CVS server is throwing errors , since we have enforced commit messages as mandatory . But i did not get an option for entering the commit message.

Any help is appreciated.

Hello askmahesh,

Are you able to reproduce the problem from the beginning, which is from importing a project into the server? By the way, how did you import the project into the server?

Best regards,
Jick

Jick,

I tried importing the project into the server from Teamwork Client . But that failed. So i manually checked in the project file and then Managing the Project within Teamwork and that gave the error as well. While importing the project into the server it gave an error saying “need to commit the file”. Since CVS initially adds the files and then we need to commit it to the server, so it is a two-step process which i am not sure Teamwork Client handles that.

Hello askmahesh,

Can I schedule an online meeting with you to take a look at this problem? The online meeting will be held over a secure connection. If you can join the meeting, please let me know when you will be available and what time zone are you in.

Best regards,
Jick
