Syncro SVN Client

setting up repository

Having trouble installing Syncro SVN Client? Got a bug to report? Post it all here.

setting up repository

Postby kloveridge » Tue Dec 13, 2011 2:20 pm

I am a one-man developer and am new to Syncro SVN. I have a NAS Storage device on my network where I want to put the repository. The path to where I want to put this is file://volumes/Public/svnRepository. When I attempt to use this as the repository, I get this error:

Could not access the repository using this specified URL address!

What am I doing wrong?

Hi,

Have you tried using three (3) slashes (one more for "root")? I assume Public is the shared drive mounted in your local system.

Code: Select all
file:///Volumes/Public/svnRepository

I'm getting the same error. I know that the paths specified in OSX are case sensitive. I can type the directory path in a terminal window and it goes right to it.

This path is supposed to be just to the root of a directory where the repository is set up right? From there, syncro SVN takes over and builds its structures, correct?

Hi,

Yes, the path is supposed to be exactly the one pointing to the root directory of the repository (in that directory should be directories with the following names: conf, db, hooks, locks etc., used by the repository itself).

For the second part, the answer is No. Syncro SVN Client does not offer the feature to create local repositories (accessed through file:// protocol). You have to use another tool to create such a repository. Syncro SVN Client only allows working with local repositories, but it does not create them.

Thats the problem. I created the repository with svn at this location:

file:///volumes/Public/svnRepository/SVNrep

SVNrep is where the repository actually was stored.

Thanks for your help!
