commit problem: file not found

I'm trying to commit a wc, but keep getting commit failed messages. I'm
not sure why. I've searched, but must not be using the correct terms
because I keep getting information on merging, which isn't what I'm
trying to do.

I keep getting "svn: File not found: revision 326, path
'/kofc/newsletter/branches/200905/Newsletter.sla'" commit messages. I'm
confused as to what this means and how it is relevant since it is
referring to a file in a different path than what I'm trying to commit.
I get the same error whether I'm in branches or branches/200906.

Any pointers on where to look to understand and solve this problem?


Here is some info that might be useful:

I tried that as well, with the same error about the file in 200905. In
fact, if I tried to commit anything under branches/ I got that error.

That may have been the case. A number of files were svn copied from the
200905 directory.

There shouldn't be any properties set there. I'm the only user of the
repo, and only have three directories with properties (all svn:external)
set, one of which is a higher level directory of these files, but
nothing this low in the directory structure.

I would guess that it's not 200906/draft.pdf, because the error always
indicated a problem committing the last file in the svn st listing,
which at times was before draft.pdf existed.

svn 1.6.2 installed via fink on 10.5.7.

I don't know exactly what fixed it, but the problem has disappeared. I
tagged the branches/200906 directory as tags/pk200906 with some
difficulty as I couldn't just svn mv or svn cp it. I ended up just
copying the 200906 directory to tags/pk200906, which wasn't the correct
way to do it as the URL for the tags/pk200906 directory was still under
the branches tree. Then I svn moved it to a temporary location under the
tags directory and then back to tags/pk200906, fixing the URL location.

After some work on the branches and branches/200906 directories, I
managed to get svn to allow me to delete the branches/200906 directory
(since it had been tagged). Once that commit was successful, I haven't
had errors committing the branches directory.

Thanks for all the suggestions!

So, "svn st" nor "svn up" show any issues. Yet, you're getting that a
branch you don't have in your Subversion working directory doesn't
exist when you try a commit. Since all the files are under the 200906
directory, can you switch to the 200906 directory and try your commit
under there?

I'm thinking that the .svn directory under the parent working
directory contains a reference to the 200905 directory.

Then again, why does Subversion fail when it is processing
200906/draft.pdf for commit and complaining about
200905/Newsletter.sla? Is there a property on 200906/draft.pdf that's
referring to this particular file? You might get that with an
svn:external, but that's only for directories and not individual
files.

Maybe that's your best course of action: Check the properties on both
200906 and 200906/draft.pdf to see if there's anything on them.

I take it you're using the standard Subversion client. I also see this
is on Mac OS X because of the .DS_Store file.

Otherwise, I really can't say what's going on.

Tried that...no changes:

Sorry, I didn't recognize the "svn st" output. I was hoping it would
show you the problem area. Have you tried "svn up" too? Subversion
doesn't allow commits unless all files are on the latest revision.
That's fine, but sometimes the error message can be a bit strange.

[corrected to bottom-postting]

An 'svn st' is included in my first email. The file indicated in the
error isn't included in the 'svn st' output. It has already been deleted
in a previous commit.

Any thoughts?

Re: commit problem: file not found

Try a "svn status" and see what you get.

There are several times you'll get this message. Sometimes you see it when
you  have a file not under local version control, but it should be. This can
happen when you create a file and then someone else creates the same file,
and adds it to Subversion.

Doing an "svn status" will help clarify what  is going on with your work
area.
