  • binkit error

    11/30 13:52:59 srvc 0068 BinkIT service thread terminated (0 clients remain, 0 total, 9 served)

    Here is the beginning of the js file:

    <<<<<<< binkit.js
    // $Id: binkit.js,v 2.26 2019/06/14 21:08:42 rswindell Exp $
    // vi: tabstop=4

    // $Id: binkit.js,v 2.27 2019/06/17 05:21:19 rswindell Exp $
    // vi: tabstop=4
    2.27

    The copy in my backup looks like this:

    // $Id: binkit.js,v 2.26 2019/06/14 21:08:42 rswindell Exp $
    // vi: tabstop=4
    /*

    I think it does not like the less-than & greater-than characters. I tried taking all of them out and leaving this:

    // $Id: binkit.js,v 2.27 2019/06/17 05:21:19 rswindell Exp $
    // vi: tabstop=4

    But apparently the source is full of those characters as it threw the same error for line 25. I saved the previous backup copy over it so hopefully it will work with the sbbs code I pulled today.

    Those are merge-conflict markers. Simply deleting the version you have locally and getting again via CVS will fix that.

    "cvs update -C" would also work.

    Ahh, I have seen those pop up in menu files before too and wondered how
    they got there! :)

    "cvs update -C" would also work.

    So that will cause the new version to overwrite rather than merge?

    Thanks!
