Apache SVN Error with the velocity package!

[Demetrios Kyriakis <de...@yahoo.com>]

Hi,

Trying to update the latest Velocity Core sources from the Apache SVN 
repository I'm getting the following error:
======================
svn:Cannot replace a directory from within
svn:REPORT of '/repos/asf/!svn/vcc/default': 500 Internal Server Error 
(http://svn.apache.org)
======================

I'm using SmartSVN as a client (www.smartsvn.com), and it seems to work 
with all the other Apache projects I've tried.
It worked with Velocity Core too a few months ago, only now when I try 
again it's delivering this error message all the time :(.

Thank you very much,

D.

Ahmed, that worked, thank you. Indeed the directory seems to be [engine] 
now.

I'm no subversion expert, but shouldn't you be able to do a svn switch?

I had this problem too. The "core" directory was renamed to "engine",
and the SVN client can't handle this gracefully (this is only true for
the root directory, and I suppose in your case "core" was the root).
Delete the checkout-ed directory and do it again. Than it should work
everything smoothly.

That's a very odd error message.  Why would it be trying to replace a
directory during checkout?  I was just able to checkout the velocity
engine trunk anonymously from the command line:

svn checkout http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/jakarta/velocity/trunk

that worked fine for me.  i've never used SmartSVN, so i'm not sure i
can help you there.  all i can do is confirm that the repository is
available and working for me.
