Hi, I was using subversion with tortoise few months ago. Then, I had to change the server. Hence, I copied svn/repos directory from the server as a backup. I don't remember the version of the svn installed on old server. What is the best way to get the repository working on new server?
I followed these steps which didn't work, > I installed svn 1.4.6 because I guess this was the version installed on the > old server. I am not sure though. > I skipped the "svnadmin create" command since I have the repository already. > Then, I created the service using "sc create svn binpath= "C:\program > files\Subversion\bin\svnserve.exe --service -r \"E:\Source > Control\svn\repos\"" DisplayName= "Subversion Server" depend= Tcpip start= > auto" where "E:\Source Control\svn\repos\" is the old repository. > Executed "net start svn" > Installed tortoise 1.6.6. > Opened TCP Port 3690 through firewall > And then, using tortoise, tried to checkout "svn:\\localhost\". I got error > "expected FS format 2 found 3" Can any body tell me what did I do wrong? - Mayuresh
