url vs path
Hi folks,
I have been using svn happily.
Most of my use is just checkout-modify-checkin cycle, using an url.
Like this:
svn checkout $HTSVN/tsakai/foo.c
Today, I wanted to run svnadmin dump command and issued:
svnadmin dump $HTSVN/tsakai > svnDumpTsakai.dump
And it told me:
svnadmin: 'http://vixen.egcrc.org:8099/svn/tsakai' is an URL
when it should be a path
I haven't used the path in ages and can't remember how the url
maps to the path. Can someone please tell me how I can do what
I mean to do above?
Thank you.
Regards,
Tena Sakai

Thanks Ryan,
Yes, I just looked in /etc/opt/CollabNet_Subversion/conf directory.
There are three files collabnet_subversion_httpd.conf, viewvc.conf,
and server that all indicate the same path. I had suspected that
is the path, but this gives me a much solider ground.
Thank you for your help.
Regards,
Tena Sakai

Well, you probably haven't been doing exactly that, since the smallest thing Subversion lets you check out is a directory (you cannot check out a file).

Look in your apache configuration (e.g. your httpd.conf or apache.conf or similar file, or possibly a file included from one of those files). In it you will find an SVNPath or SVNParentPath directive which lists the location on disk where your repositories are stored. That will tell you the path to use for any svnadmin commands.

svnadmin dump only takes the local filesystem path. So you must run it on
the local machine hosting the repository.
