[cvsnt] Unable to commit

[Arthur Barrett]

Ryan,

Do not send attachments to the mailing list and it is poor etiquette to
use a fake e-mail address - just get a free one from gmail if you are
worried about being spammed - with a fake address there is nowhere to
send the 'message to large' warning to.

If the problem is occurring only with new users - it's clearly
environmental.

The trace is useless since you have not enabled 'clients are allowed to
trace server' on the cvsnt server control panel - this is only the
client trace.

Do not send traces to the newsgroup - do the diff yourself and send just
the relavent bits in the body of the newsgroup message.  Messages more
than 8K are automaticallly rejected.

If you really want to send a full trace send it in a  separate message
to support at march-hare.com and mention it on the newsgroup and I can dig
it out of our spam trap.

Regards,


Arthur
