[Buildbot-devel] Upgraded from 0.7.9 to 0.7.10p1 - now buildbot checkconfig fails

[Gavin]

Hi All, 

I just upgraded from 0.7.9 to 0.7.10p1 by doing

download new version
cd to new version
python sertup.py build
python setup.py install
ran the tests worked fine

That is all I did, I did not run upgrade-master.

restarted buildbot and all seems to work ok, except :-

buildbot checkconfig always gives me an error now

$ buildbot checkconfig ~buildmaster/master1
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/buildbot/scripts/runner.py", line
908, in doCheckConfig
    ConfigLoader(configFile)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/buildbot/scripts/checkconfig.py",
line 18, in __init__
    copy(configFileName, tempdir)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.5/shutil.py", line 80, in copy
    copyfile(src, dst)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.5/shutil.py", line 46, in copyfile
    fsrc = open(src, 'rb')
IOError: [Errno 21] Is a directory

I've performed the upgrade on 2 machines with the same results.
This is important to me as I have a script that checks for any svn changes
to the buildbot config files and performs a buildbot restart depending on
whether buildbot checkconfig returns ok.
