Hi Julien,<br><br>thanks for your reply.<br><br>No that is unfortunately not the issue.<br><br>Here is why:<br><ol><li>my build (ctest) machines are special purpose; they are not used for anything else other than configure/build/test using ctest.</li>
<li>the build machines use the same code line (SVN) but each work on local copy of the repository. At every run of the jobs, the update step is the first executed</li><li>given what said above:</li><ol><li>the windows machine does not have issues when the update step (ctest does that) records repository file deletions. Note that here I recently switched to using 'ctest advanced scripting'.<br>
</li><li>the linux machines do have the issue described below when the updated step records a repository file deletions. Note that here I am still using ctest command line (-DNightlyUpdate, -DContinuousUpdate, or simply -DNightly, -DContinous)</li>
</ol><li>the file below (lsm303a.c) is a file that has incurred in repository deletion but has svn history (svn log would show the file as present in the revision prior to the current)<br></li></ol>I am growing more and more convinced this a ctest thing; some sort of discrepancy between the Windows/Linux implementation, scripting/command-line invocation.<br>
<br>If you think that could be the case, I will re-post on the cmake mailing list.<br><br>Thanks,<br><br clear="all">Michele<br>

Michele, Martin,<br>
<br>
If the file is not under revision control, there is no way to know who<br>
has been checking in the file. CTest just ask the version control client<br>
to return the author.<br>
<br>
From the log file you sent:<br>
svn: 'mllite/accel/lsm303a.c' is not under version control<br>
<br>
This error usually happens when the development machine is also the<br>
CTest machine. We recommend to keep the two instances distinct.<br>
<br>
Let me know if this is actually not the issue,<br>
