I used vss2svn.exe to convert VSS repository to SVN. I got _vss2svn
directory and a vss2svn-dumpfile.dat.
If you're working on Ubuntu anyway, I'd suggest running the whole
conversion there for future. I just finished a 4gb 28K revision
conversion with 300K files. Running the .exe version on XP resulted in
a dump file with massive corruption (it looked like internal io buffer
corruption). Running on linux took 40 mins instead of 3 hours, and
actually worked. :)
After this I used following command to load dump file into newly
created repository.
svnadmin load /home/svnrepos/ < vss2svn-dumpfile.dat
When I executed this command, I did not find any message on the
command line. Then I tied svnlook command to see if there is any data
I could not find.
Am I missing anything here or do I need to follow any other steps
before this.
I am working on ubuntu server, please help me out.
This should work. Are you sure your dump file has the correct content?
Immediately svnadmin should print like "<<< Starting new transaction..."
If you need to examine your dump file there's a really excellent tool to
examine/manage svn dump files: svndumptool http://svn.borg.ch/svndumptool/
