I'm trying to backup 3 repositories in my VisualSVN Server using svnadmin hotcopy.
Here are my commands : svnadmin hotcopy c:\repositories\repo1 c:\svn-backups\repo1 --clean- logs svnadmin hotcopy c:\repositories\repo2 c:\svn-backups\repo2 --clean- logs svnadmin hotcopy c:\repositories\repo3 c:\svn-backups\repo3 --clean- logs Repo1 and Repo2 were create with VisualSVN Server and Repo3 was import into VisualSVN Server from an older version of "windows based" subversion. The Repo3 backups fine. When I backup Repo1 and Repo2 (the ones created from VisualSVN Server), I get the following error: Expected format '3' of repository; found format '5' error Now if I open the format file in each, Repo3 has a format number of 3. Repo1 and Repo2 have a format number of 5. (Again Repo1 and Repo2 were created with VisualSVN Server. Any ideas ? Thanks in advance.
