Exception when trying to configure CVS repository

I tried to configure CVS repository to my project directory which contains checked-out copy of a project.

I got message:

Error occurred while updating the cvs repository, obtaining cvs log or parsing the cvs log. Please consult the log file for more details.

I checked out the console end found the following stacktrace
(see below).

How can I avoid this?

Michal.
