Uli, I'm not using Apache. I do, however, have TortoiseSVN installed.
My Repositories were originally in C:\DW and I want to move them to C:\Open\kwc54dw\DW I have copied the repository "AHEAProps Repository" to this new location My working files were originally in C:\Dev and I have moved them to c:\open\kwc54dw\Dev When I try to do the switch from within TSVN: Command: Switch C:\Open\kwc54dw\Dev\AHEAProps to file:///C:/Open/kwc54dw/DW/AHEAProps Repository, Revision HEAD Error: 'file:///C:/DW/AHEAProps%20Repository' Error: is not the same repository as Error: 'file:///C:/Open/kwc54dw/DW/AHEAProps%20Repository' Finished!: If I try to use the Relocate command from TSVN, I get this message: "If seems you are trying to relocate your working copy to a different path inside the same repository. From: file:///C:/DW/AHEAProps Repository To: file:///C:/open/kwc54dw/DW/AHEAProps Repository A relocate is only needed if the path to a repository has changed. ... Improper use of relocate will corrupt your working copy!" Stuck now :-( Thought I understood this, apparently not.

Make sure the repos are not accessed at the moment (turn off Apache/svnserve) and then just do a file-system move operation using your preferred file management utility. > I thought I needed to use something like > > Svn switch -relocate "C:\Old Repository Location\Repository Name" > "C:\New Repository Location\Repository Name" > > When I do this, I get the message "svn : '.' Is not a working copy" Yes, you need to do that but on your working copies, not on the repositories. OTOH, if you are using any server for them, you only need to tell the server that they were moved. If the server still runs on the same machine/port then working copies don't need relocation. Cheers!
