First of all, have to say, it figures! :\ Article written a short time ago saying CVS is the only way to update a Moodle and claiming I've 'never' had an issue reminds me to change what I say ... 'never' say 'never'! :\
I upgrade/update Moodles via CVS. In attempts to update this past week, an error raised it's ugly head: 'can't create temporary directory /tmp/cvs-serv22979' After investigating my own server(s) and then trying CVS update other servers of different operating systems and getting the same error, discovered the problem is with us.cvs.moodle.org server. Changing the CVS server to us2.cvs.moodle.org resolved the issue and am able to complete CVS updates. If you have already used CVS and you've an update script inside your Moodle directory, edit the 'Root' file in the CVS directory and change the host name from: :pserver:anonymous@us.cvs.moodle.org:/cvsroot/moodle to: :pserver:anonymous@us2.cvs.moodle.org:/cvsroot/moodle Then try your CVS update again.
