General instructions

  • We used to have our own Bazaar server. The instructions are here: Administration of own bazaar server
  • Today, we are using Launchpad, which allows everbody to create his own branch without involvement of any administrator

bzr break-lock

bzr: ERROR: paramiko.SSHException: lost ssh-agent

If you get such an error on Windows 7 64-bit then try to run pageant not as Administrator but as normal user.

Could not open a connection to your authentication agent

If you get such an error then please have a look here or here

bzr: ERROR: Cannot lock LockDir(...): Transport operation not possible: http does not support mkdir()

On getting such an error you've probably been trying to use something like lp:~username instead of bzr+ssh://

Solution1: Make sure you have pageant running (not as admin) and a key loaded.

Solution2: Execute "bzr launchpad-login <username>" on a command line.

Solution3: Perhaps you reinstalled your system. Then you need to create a new public/private-keypair. Possibly you need to execute bzr checkout ... afterwards to apply the new key.

bzr: ERROR: Failed to rename ... to ...: [Error 5] Access denied

If you get such en error on checking out a branch then please disable your antivirus program, delete the .bzr-folder from your local branch and try again. See here for further information.
