I re-ran replica/pull around 22:00EST on 14 October 2003 and was happy to see the new fossil binary and sources download. Unfortunately, I was once again unable to use the -W flag. A transcript: term% con /srv/fscons prompt: fsys main main: srv -APW admin usage: srv [-Adp] [service] main: srv -AP admin main: >>> q term% mount /srv/admin /mnt/admin term% lc -l /mnt/admin/386/bin/fossil/fossil --rwxrwxr-x M 36 glenda sys 345764 Oct 13 22:22 fossil term% chgrp -o sys /mnt/admin/386/bin/fossil/fossil chgrp: can't wstat /mnt/admin/386/bin/fossil/fossil: wstat -- not owner I have also experienced another problem that may be related: While using the 29 September and 12 October versions of fossil in -AP mode, in addition to warnings about failures to set uids, I also witnessed warnings like this one: warning: cannot set mtime on /mnt/admin/sys/src/cmd/fossil/9srv.c (This problem seems to be confined to source files, not binaries.) At the time, I wasn't too concerned. But, when I did my latest replica/pull to acquire your changes to fossil, I found replica refusing to update some files: sys/src/cmd/fossil/9user.c: locally modified; will not update I have not modified these files. Is this refusal the result of replica/pull's earlier failure to set the mtimes on these files? Once again, thank you for your assistance! Tim Fraser / U.
