SITUATION:
During a workspace update the following error occurs:

Unable to automatically determine workspace move-aside area.
Please manually edit the accurev temp dir mapping file.
Update failed

RESOLUTION:
The ac_tmp directory is used during an update to store directories and files that it temporarily needs to move out of the way (when the reference
tree/workspace is being updated with renamed/moved elements). The directory is usually deleted once the update is complete. Occasionally, if an update fails, the directory does not get deleted. Deleting the ac_tmp directory will fix the problem.

This directory is listed in the <users homme directory>/.accurev/ac_tmp_map file.
