Hi Amber,
You should be using the same URL, to check out the repository, that you use
to view the repository in the browser.
In your case, this means using:
http://[server_name.domain:8080]/svn/[project_folder_name(under the
repository_folder)]
rather than:
svn://[server_name]/[repository_folder_name]/
This is because VisualSVN Server only supports SVN over HTTP/HTTPS.
