Hello, Thank you for contacting VisualSVN Team. > I installed VisualSVN on a server with the default (local) path to the > repository. > Everything worked fine. > > Then i changed the path to the repository to point to a folder on a network > drive by right clicking the Visual SVN server and choosing properties. > In the general tab i changed the Repositories root to point to the folder on > the network drive: > \\server_name\Teknik\software_repository
Please see the Getting Started guide at http://www.visualsvn.com/server/getting-started/ and related KB article "Storing repositories on a network share" at http://www.visualsvn.com/support/topic/00022/. You should NOT point VisualSVN Server to a repository. You must point VisualSVN Server to *repositories root* (i.e. repositories collection). So if you have repo "software_repository" you should point VisualSVN Server to "\\SERVER\Teknik\Repositories\" where repository "software_repository" exists. "\\SERVER\Teknik\Repositories\" must contain 'htpaswd' that contains SVN users and 'authz' (authz rules for SVN authentication) or 'authz-windows' (authz rules for Windows authentication (Single Sign-On and/or Basic). > Now when i start the server i get the following errors in the event viewer: > > 1) Syntax error on line 72 of C:/Program Files/VisualSVN > Server/conf/httpd.conf: > and > 2) Invalid file path //server_name/Teknik/software_repository/htpasswd > > If i create a user the htpasswd file is updated. > > Does anybody have an idea about what could be wrong? This is a side-effect of the incorrect repositories root setting as far as I see. I strongly advise you to check the following article to make sure you configured everything properly: "Storing repositories on a network share": http://www.visualsvn.com/support/topic/00022/ Thank you. -- With best regards, Pavel Lyalyakin VisualSVN Team -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "VisualSVN" group.
