CleanUp Does Not CleanUP

[Peter Conklin]

Need help with what appears to be an SVN bug. Using SVN version 1.14.5 and when I try to perform an SVN Update to a folder the tool keeps telling me I need to perform a Cleanup. When I try to perform a cleanup it flags an error on one specific temp file in one specific folder. If I perform a cleanup of that specific folder it works! At least it doesn't flag any errors. However, if I pop up a few directories to perform the SVN update again the cleanup message comes back and when I perform the cleanup the same error message appears and it references the same temp file. The file name starts with a "$$" and it's a Visio file.

In the SVN browser and in my standard Windows explorer file viewer this file does not exist. It's as if the tool is stuck on this file that doesn't exist. Not sure what to do next. Please help. Running the latest version of SVN and this error won't go away. Not sure what to do next.

Thank you,

Peter

Can you post the exact error message?

 

Kind regards,

Is Visio open?
The file is hidden, so you do not see it in explorer.
It is a temporary file, so it can be safely deleted, if Visio is closed.

Hope that helps,

Stefan - thanks for following up. Here’s a snapshot of the error message. The temp file doesn’t exist in the folder so that’s what is throwing us. We actually “recreated” the file so it would be there, then ran a cleanup and still got the same error. Any further help would be appreciated.

if a file inside the .svn folder is missing then cleanup won't help anymore. Only a fresh checkout will solve this.
