This is the syntax I used to create the service. The "D:\MUXBOPCS" is the name of our production repo. It's empty right now. I created a test repo on the same server called "Sandbox_SVN_Repo" which has a couple of dirs & files in it.
Do I need to create a "svnserve" for each repo? C:\Users\>sc create svnserve binpath= "\"D:\Program Files\TortoiseSVN\bin\svnserve.exe\" --service --root D:\MUXBOPCS" displayname= "Subversion Server" depend= tcpip start= auto [SC] CreateService SUCCESS -----Original Message----- From: Thorsten Schöning [mailto:tschoen...@am-soft.de] Sent: Monday, September 17, 2012 9:29 AM To: users@subversion.apache.org Subject: Re: Unable to connect to SVN repository Guten Tag Ahmed, Omair (GE Oil & Gas), am Montag, 17.

Normally you have to provide the root path for your repos, like in my example: C:\Programme\CollabNet\Subversion Client\svnserve --service --listen-port 3690 --root "D:\Subversion\Quellen" Mit freundlichen Grüßen, Thorsten Schöning -- Thorsten Schöning E-Mail:thorsten.schoen...@am-soft.de AM-SoFT IT-Systeme http://www.AM-SoFT.de/ Telefon.............030-2 1001-310 Fax...............05151- 9468- 88 Mobil..............0178-8 9468- 04 AM-SoFT GmbH IT-Systeme, Brandenburger Str. 7c, 31789 Hameln AG Hannover HRB 207 694 - Geschäftsführer: Andreas Muchow
