We had trouble with our CVS server connection. Also I've migrated from IDEA 10 to 11 version. Now I have problem with CVS. I cannot update, add or commit project cause of this exception:
Error: Cannot find CVSROOT for file C:\New\SMDPO
But configuration of CVS is OK and I have sucess test connection.
Does anybody know what's the problem?
Thanks
Upd: I have remote CVS server on Linux. I use Windows 7. Everything was same and worked before.
The problem is caused by the missing CVS folder inside the project root. IDE is looking for CVS/Root file.
Select from menu: "VCS > CVS > Migrate CVS Root...". Fixed it for me after migrating (importing) a project from Eclipse workspace.
