I am at the final stage of day one. I am using subversion 1.2 on a windows xp machine. The following command raises an error:

svnadmin create $SVNREP_DIR/askeet

Error:

svnadmin: Repository creation failed
svnadmin: Could not creat top level direcotry
svnadmin: Can't create direcorry '$SVNREP_DIR/askeet': The system cannot find the path specified

Your help is much appreciated.

"$SVNREP_DIR" is meant to be replaced by *your* path to *your* subversion repository.

Thank you. Make sense.

It works for the first command. I tried the following command and it raises an error. I am not sure whether my syntax is correct.

svn mkdir -m "layout creation" file:///f:/webserver/svn_cvs/askeet/trunk file:///f:/webserver/svn_cvs/askeet/tags file:///f:/webserver/svn_cvs/askeet/branches

Please note that f:/webserver/svn_svs is the direcory I created for svn repository.

You help is appreciated.

Thank you. I modified the command as follows and it worked.

svn mkdir -m "layout creation" file:///webserver/svn_cvs/askeet/trunk file:///webserver/svn_cvs/askeet/tags file:///webserver/svn_cvs/askeet/branches

I am not sure why it makes a difference in a windows system.

I am now having a problem with the following command:

rm -rf cache/*

It raises the following error:
'rm' is not recognized as internal or external command.

I do appreciate your help.

Maru,

rm -rf cache/*

is a linux command (removes all files in cache/ directory).

Under Windows, simply:
- start Windows Explorer
- navigate to your cache folder
- select all and delete them

Thank you very much. However, does it mean remove the files in askeet.origin folder or does it mean remove the folder askeet.origin?

Thank you.

Thank you bladus. That helps.

I am using svn-1.2.3-setup on a Windows XP platform. The following command generates an error:

Command svn propedit svn:ignore cache

Error: None of the environment variables SVN_EDITOR, VISUAL or EDITOR is set, and no 'editor-cmd' run-time configuration was found.

How would I configure a text editor to be used with subversion?

Your help is very much appreciated.

Thank you.
