Re: Another weird error message

This is my FINAL FINAL post on this subject! GAH ALL my fault.. DUH..
ALL my fault..

Let me tell you all what I did. If there is any way in the future to
KNOCK someone over the head with when this happens, it would be a nice
thing.

I went and deleted a couple of subdirs that I had initially checked in.
However, since I wanted the actual data in them saved and restored (This
is a website so some data folders I NEED for proper operation BUT
shouldn't be checked into SVN) I made a backup of the folders BEFORE I
ran the svn delete.

So I run the svn delete and then a svn commit on the folders I just
deleted. Yah. it worked. I THEN go back and RESTORE the original
folders WHICH JUST HAPPENED TO HAVE the .svn subfolder IN IT! (That was
my mistake! :D)

After that, I went to check in my changes for the entire site. When I
tried, I get this error:

svn: Problem running log
svn: in directory
svn: start_handler: error processing command 'delete-entry' in
svn: Working copy not locked
svn: directory not locked (backup)

Now, it does show the directory it was having a problem with. IE the
final line in parens. It just didn't sink in!

Once I removed the .svn folders from the folders I deleted, everything
is HAPPY now...
