RE: upgrade Subversion from version 1.6 to svn, version 1.8.15 (r1718365)

[Grierson, David]

Are you sure that ais_repos is a working copy?

Can you provide the output of an ls in this directory?

Thanks,

David.

Hi,
In this new version 1.8.15 server, with the working directory copied from an 
existing 1.6 subversion server, I tried to do a 'svn cleanup' to a working 
directory, I got the 'not a working copy directory'. Please see the following 
copy and paste:
[subvadm@vx63 subv_repos]$ cd ARS_repos_aps
[subvadm@vx63 ARS_repos_aps]$ svn cleanup
svn: E155007: '/subv_repos/ARS_repos_aps' is not a working copy directory
[subvadm@vx63 ARS_repos_aps]$
Please advise,
Thanks,
Margaret

I installed version 1.8.15, copied the working directory from an existing 1.6 
version server to this new server.   I su logged in as subvadm, cd to working 
directory, cd to one of the working directory ais_repos.   I issued the command 
'svn upgrade', but   I got the error not a working copy root, file not found 
error. (please see the following copy and paste).
I am new to the Subversion.  Please advise.

Hi Margaret,

I doubt you see the difference between a repository and working copy.

The 'svn upgrade' is used to upgrade a 'working copy', which is on the
_client_.

The 'svnadmin upgrade' is used to uprgade a 'repository', which is on
the _server_

So, when you are under /subv_repos/ais_repos, run the 'svnadmin
uprgade', as Bert told you before..
