Team Base - Error with Sub version

[kt1]

Hi,

I can not configure my project with sub version. When I save my configuration, I receive message error:
             " Error while initializing Version Control Provider:
               Subversion report the following error:          
               svn:'.' is not a working copy "

Can you help me?

Thanks

Hi,

I had same problem earlier today when setting up my EA/Subversion environment. I got around the problem by doing a checkout from the command line (svn) and it then created the .svn dir and related files.

However, I would have thought it should be possible to do this all from EA. Perhaps someone else can comment on this.

I also am having some other problems with setting up this environment and have posted them to the forum today so they should be easy to find. One is resolved (sort of) but the other is a new one I just posted a few minutes ago.

If I have many more problems I might be inclined to think that EA/Subversion integration may not be as well tested as it should be, but I'm prepared to soldier on probably finding that the problems are of my own creation :-)

Hi,

Thanks for your answer. At now, I configured SubVersion successfully. However, my package is controlled but not version control. How can I have version control for my package?

Thanks

A couple of questions...

- did you test subversion using client apps on same machine as EA? eg. svn, TortoiseSVN - check in a test file, check out, etc.etc.

- I used TortoiseSVN to test. Also when prompted by TortoiseSVN for username and password I supplied them and let T-SVN save the authentication stuff - EA seemed to expect that this was done before using EA

- were there any error messages ? anything useful in server logs ? I am using apache (http://... urls for files) rather than svnserve so I had a look in /var/log/httpd.conf for other error messages and then did some googling

Hope this helps
