Contrary to the previous message I found that the only way I could fix the connectivity was to publish my backup Ubuntu server on the Internet as a self-signed Apache service on port 443 on my Internet router. So the svnsync command will execute on the master server on Windows and target the remote https URL. I have read the svnbook 1.7 on the svnsync usage: http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.7/svn.reposadmin.maint.html#svn.reposadmin.maint.replication and I have followed its instructions all along to the end. So I have configured the target mirror server (Ubuntu 16.04) such that it is accessible on a domain name via https and I have prepared the hooks all according to the svnbook. The test repository sits at revision 0. When done on Ubuntu I moved over to the source server (Windows Server 2016 in a completely different location). So on the Windows Server command line I issued the commands from the svnbook. First, initialize the sync - but I see errors (privacy data mangled): E:\>svnsync initialize https://xxx.yyy.com/svn/bosse https://localserver/svn/bosse --sync-username syncuser --sync-password zzzzz Error validating server certificate for 'https://xxx.yyy.com:443': - The certificate is not issued by a trusted authority. Use the fingerprint to validate the certificate manually! Certificate information: - Hostname: xxx.yyy.com - Valid: from Mar 25 00:52:45 2018 GMT until Mar 22 00:52:45 2028 GMT - Issuer: xxx.yyy.com, IT, xxxsciences Inc, Jarfalla, Stockholm, SE(u...@somedomain.com) - Fingerprint: 1C:84:47:97:89:7E:48:3B:C9:08:C0:F5:65:E8:01:B0:7F:DD:DB:21 (R)eject, accept (t)emporarily or accept (p)ermanently? I have seen this before when accessing a selfsigned server for the first time, so I replied p and got this: svnsync: E170011: Repository moved permanently to 'https://xxx.yyy.com/svn/bosse' What does this mean? I have *not* requested a move, just to initialize syncronization of the source localserver to the destination mirror xxx.yyy.com Not knowing what to do next I tried the synchronize command: E:\>svnsync synchronize https://xxx.yyy.com/svn/bosse https://localserver/svn/bosse svnsync: E170011: Repository moved permanently to 'https://xxx.yyy.com/svn/bosse' Apparently something has gone wrong, but what? And what does "moved permanently" mean? AFAICT nothing has moved or copied... If I google the visible error message not a single hit I get is referring to command svnsync... -- Bo Berglund Developer in Sweden
