Synchronization Problem in CVS

When making checkout or update in your Project Module the following message occours:

cvs checkout: Updating #####
cvs checkout: [12:39:06] waiting for user lock in /afs/tagus/courses/dei/comp0/public/projecto/#####

This means that exists a session that kept the lock for the Project Module it is keeping you from getting the lock.

To solve this problem go to your Project Module directory in the Repository and remove the following directory:

#cvs.lock

or

/afs/tagus/courses/dei/comp0/public/projecto/#####/ #cvs.lock

Note that only the user with permissions over the Project Module can perform such operation.
