Sounds like you didn't invoke the command correctly. The syntax is: $ svnadmin help rmtxns rmtxns: usage: svnadmin rmtxns REPOS_PATH TXN_NAME... Delete the named transaction(s). Valid options: -q [--quiet] : no progress (only errors) to stderr It will look for a file REPOS_PATH/format to figure out the repository format. I guess you put the txn name '9279-7lb' where the repository path is expected?
