subversion error when trying to checkout file

[el...@theriver.com]

I installed apache2 and subverison and on the Quick Start
http://svnbook.red-bean.com/svnbook/ch01s07.html
 I got all the way until the checkout part of the instuctiosn and then it
failed prior to that the steps worked.

Here is where I tried to checkout the file:
svn checkout file:///var/www/svn/project/trunk/ bar.c
svn: URL 'file:///var/www/svn/project/trunk' doesn't exist


Here is the example from the documentation.
svn checkout file:///path/to/repos/trunk project

Also I created the repository under /var/www just to test this not sure if
that is causing problems.

Perhaps you didn't import a tree structure that contained {trunk,
branches, tags} directories?  Why don't you show us a transcript of
every svn command you typed.
