Stefan and Thorsten, Thank you your helpful suggestions :-)
I can access the data from my client now - original problem resolved. I created a directory called "Sandbox" which contains two subdirs and some files. I then imported the "Sandbox" directory. However, I was expecting to SVN to import the "Sandbox" directory also which it didn't. Is that by design? How can I do an import and get the directory structure that I expect? Thanks again. -----Original Message----- From: Stefan Sperling [mailto:s...@elego.de] Sent: Monday, September 17, 2012 9:52 AM To: Ahmed, Omair (GE Oil & Gas) Cc: users@subversion.apache.org Subject: Re: Unable to connect to SVN repository On Mon, Sep 17, 2012 at 10:44:39AM -0400, Ahmed, Omair (GE Oil & Gas) wrote: > Do I need to create a "svnserve" for each repo? No. svnserve will try to access repositories relative to the path you pass for --root, by appending to --root the path which follows the hostname part given in the svn:// URL. So you need to pass the parent directory of your repositories as --root parameter, rather than the repository itself. Then you can access each repository by using its name in the svn:// URL.
