No, I thought that all directories in the root directory for svn would be looked at as repositories... It *is* shown in the Repositories pane in the VisualSVN Manager... And when I use the web interface it is accessible too. Now when I run the info command in my Windows PC I get this: D:\>svn info https://agiengineering/svn/cmpcpy Path: cmpcpy URL: https://agiengineering/svn/cmpcpy Relative URL: ^/ Repository Root: https://agiengineering/svn/cmpcpy Repository UUID: 5cc66cbf-7812-df45-88c9-f6cf676ea278 Revision: 1311 Node Kind: directory Last Changed Author: bosse Last Changed Rev: 1311 Last Changed Date: 2024-01-14 22:14:41 +0100 (Sun, 14 Jan 2024) If I do the same but on my mirror server at home I get the same result except the Last Changed Rev is 1312! :-) Success so far, so on to the dumpfile test: ------------------------------------------- I do this in the directory on the server that holds the dump files: E:\dir\svnrdump load https://agiengineering/svn/cmpcpy < dump_cmp svnrdump: E175008: While handling the 'svn:rdump-lock' property on '/svn/cmpcpy/!svn/bln/0': svnrdump: E175008: Repository has not been enabled to accept revision propchanges; ask the administrator to create a pre-revprop-change hook So I am a bit further and I don't know if this error is because I have targeted the copy of the actual repository to test on or if it is some general setting in the VisualSVN system I am missing for the copied repository (or maybe for all repos but it has not shown up before). Note: To create the copy I did (as admin) an xcopy of repository dir cmp to cmpcpy in the repo root. So both cmp and cmpcpy have the same UUID string inside, in fact *every* internal byte is the same. I have not configured anything within the VisualSVN management console for this copied repo. How am I supposed to do that? And what is needed? -- Bo Berglund Developer in Sweden
