How to checkout project from head using CVS command using windows command prompt -


i searched extensively resolve issue, not find solution.

requirement: need checkout adm project head.

cvs server name: cvs02dv (cvs installed on windows)

cvs server directory: c:\cvs\dev (the location files can accessed using eclipse or cvs client tool smartcvs)

project checked out head: adm

using eclipse can access files using pserver:user@cvs02dv:c:\cvs\dev

i downloaded cvs client below site, unzipped in d:\vinu\installedsw\cvsclient directory.

http://ftp.gnu.org/non-gnu/cvs/binary/stable/x86-woe/cvs-1-11-22.zip

command used checkout window command line:

d:\vinu\installedsw\cvsclient>cvs -d:pserver:usera@cvs02dv:c:\cvs\dev co adm 

error:

cvs checkout: cvsroot requires path spec: cvs checkout: :(gserver|kserver|pserver):[[user][:password]@]host[:[port]]/path cvs checkout: [:(ext|server):][[user]@]host[:]/path cvs [checkout aborted]: bad cvsroot: `:pserver:user@cvs02dv:c:\cvs\dev'. 

appreciate hint

finally able resolve issue, suspected issue due cvs client had used.

please not use below cvs client stated in question

http://ftp.gnu.org/non-gnu/cvs/binary/stable/x86-woe/cvs-1-11-22.zip

instead download cvs client below site

http://www.cvsnt.org

  1. install cvs client using above link, installed in d:\cvsnt directory
  2. add d:\cvsnt in path variable, i.e update path environment variable cvsnt path (right click on computer -->advanced system settings --> environment variables -> edit../new.. --> path)

  3. open command prompt check whether cvs client in path. enter cvs -version

c:\test>cvs -version
