"make update" error, Access denied

Building Blender
1

Hi,

I usually build Blender regularly, but since a day or two I have this error saying that it does not have access to move a file, but I didn’t change anything on my side, is there something I should change to make it work ?

Cheers !

Had the same problem yesterday. I manually deleted the \lib\win64_vc15\python folder, ran "svn cleanup %path_to_the_lib_directory% and after that make update worked again.
I hope this helps.

Was the same here. Didn’t change anything on my end ,but ran into this issue. Doing a cleanup and then update fixed it.

Had this earlier today, but command line svn cleanup wasn’t working. Kept giving me “blablabla is not a working copy directory”

What worked is right-click context menu for the folder. TortoiseSVN->Cleanup

I got same issue. After I change branch to master, then make update.

I tried svn clean up with tortoice svn (right click context menu), and clean up suceed, but it did not work when I “make update” , I still see same access error.

but as you said, delete python directory >>svn clean up >>make upate
finally worked for me. thanks!!
