I've created a new folder (with files and sub-folders) in a workspace. I then promoted them all into a parent stream (and even to the grandparent one). However I cannot see them in another workspace stemming from that parent stream. It does not appear in Exclude/Include mode either. What am I doing wrong?

Thanks, Michael

Michael - you'll need to 'update' the other workspace. That (older) workspace only has visibility to the transactional state of its backing streams as of its last update... part of the TimeSafe architecture.

  • Naturally, update was the first thing I tried to do. This did not help of course. Notice, that this "other" workspace was created using Pick & Choose method. So there are more folders that are invisible. But of course they are all there when I swith to Include/Exclude mode, except for this new folder I am talking about. – Michael Oct 01 '10 at 15:36

Michael, it may require some debugging through support, but there's no logical reason for that content to not appear once you update. It's possible the workspace is out of sync. From a command-line, please perform the following in the P&C workspace:

  • accurev stat -m (This checks for modified files in progress. If any exist, Keep them)
  • accurev update -9 (This forces the workspace to update to the current transactional level)
  • accurev pop -O -R . (This replaces the content of the workspace)

At this point, after the update -9, you should be able to turn on Include/Exclude and see the new content. If not, I'd suggest you log a Support case with AccuRev.
