Unable to CHECKOUT -> CHECKIN, GET, etc. works!

[Guest]

Please excuse me for the double post..
Basically I wanted to get somebody's attention..
---------------------------------
I am having the problem below:

I am able to "GET" stuff from source safe.
I am able to "CHECKIN" stuff..

But, when I "CHECKOUT", I get an error saying "Operation Failed".

The SUSPICIOUS entries in the log file :

Code: Select all

"(0x80040000) Invalid OLEVERB structure"
"Socket read failed"
"Connection reset by peer"

My colleagues are able to carry on NORMAL stuff.. !!! Its only me!

I dont have any firewall, etc. Client version 4.0.2 ( I get the error in earlier client too... )

I am not sure of the server version, though!

Anybody know the solution to this?

Plz hlp..

TIA...

A Check Out operation can fail for a number of reasons. Some of those reasons are:

* when a user does not have permission to check out the file.

* when the file is already checked out and multiple file check out is not enabled.

* when the file being checked out does not transfer across the network completely.

The snippet of the log file seems to indicate some sort of network problem that is closing the socket.

Please send me a private message with the last few days of the log file and we'll see if anything else comes to light.

Hi lbauer,
Thanks for the suggestions....

Guess what,... I DELETED the ss.ini file in my SourceSafe server, and created an EMPTY ss.ini file.

Everything seems to work smoothly after !!!!

MOTTO:
Wack your ss.ini in the Server and create an EMPTY ss.ini file. Then start SOS... everything will work!
