Hello,
Did you use the nighlty built? There are a few improvements in orphaned
tracking.
I expect that you have used MOVES and/or Archive/Restore cycles. for
some reason, the "parent" project was not available at the time, when
the orphaned files where created. So a lot of files come out in the
orphaned state. The nightly build will move files out of the orphaned
directory if the items come to live in a real parent. But technically
there is no way to overcome this problem. VSS does not support atomic
commits and it is perfectly possible to have timestamps and
modifications on files prior to the timestamp of the parent project.
That means, you can have a file modification at a time, when the parent
project does not exists.

Hello,
I'm using vss2svn (with --verbose) to convert a VSS repository which
is just over 1GB in size but I get 9547 errors. With that many errors,
I am guessing that I'm doing something incorrectly.
Despite the errors, an SVN dump file of about 1.7GB is created which
does load into SVN. Unfortunately, the conversion process places the
entirety of the two most active VSS projects (within this repository)
in an orphaned state - not a single file in these two projects show up
SVN.
I have executed VSS analyze with a number of "successful fixes", but
the resulting VSS DB is virtually identical to the previous image, as
is the vss2svn output. The (partial) output of stderr, and stdout are
show below. Here's a summary of the types of errors:

Any ideas on things to try?

END OF CONVERSION
The VSS to SVN conversion is complete. You should now use the
"svnadmin load"
command to load the generated dumpfile
'after-analyze-fix\stageweb1-dumpfile.txt'. The "svnadmin"
utility is provided as part of the Subversion command-line toolset; use a
command such as the following:
svnadmin load <repodir> < "after-analyze-fix\stageweb1-dumpfile.txt"
You may need to precede this with "svnadmin create <repodir>" if you
have not
yet created a repository. Type "svnadmin help <cmd>" for more
information on
"create" and/or "load".
If any errors occurred during the conversion, they are summarized above.
