Felix workspace requires svn to be upgraded...

[I have changed the subject]

Justin,

That used to be my understanding as well until I started encountering 
the following error while trying to update my Felix workspace using svn 
1.5.4:

ss141213@Sahoo:/space/ss141213/WS/felix/trunk$ svn info
svn: This client is too old to work with working copy '.'.  You need
to get a newer Subversion client, or to downgrade this working copy.
See http://subversion.tigris.org/faq.html#working-copy-format-change
for details.

Thanks,
Sahoo

Right - this error has nothing to do with the version of the server. You
must have accessed this working copy with a newer version of Subversion.

Re: Felix workspace requires svn to be upgraded...

Posted by Sahoo <Sa...@Sun.COM>.
Tim,

Thank you, thank you, thank you. That was it. Although I never knowingly 
upgraded the workspace to newer version of svn, I must have unknowingly 
selected some option in my IDE and that would have upgraded, because the 
svn utilities in Ubuntu is still at version 1.5.4. So, the only other 
software that could have touched this folder is my IDE, which must be 
having a newer svn client software embedded with it.

Although I had read the FAQ, it never struck me that I had to actually 
lower the version of my working copy. I was always trying to upgrade the 
working copy version using the utility  referenced in that FAQ. After 
your response, I tried to lower the version to 1.5 by running it like this:

*change-svn-wc-format.py . 1.5*

and that fixed the issue.

Thank you once again,
Sahoo

RE: Felix workspace requires svn to be upgraded...

Posted by "Moloney, Tim M" <Ti...@ManTech.com>.
I believe that Justin is correct, but I've seen that error message also.

I think that any version svn client can create a *new* working copy from
any version svn server.

However, if you check out a working copy with a newer svn client, then
try to access that same working copy with an older svn client, you may
see that error message, depending on what new features have been added.

I ran into this problem when I had a newer svn client (via Eclipse
Subversive) that created working copies that my system svn client (Red
Hat 5) didn't understand.

Justin,

That used to be my understanding as well until I started encountering 
the following error while trying to update my Felix workspace using svn 
1.5.4:

ss141213@Sahoo:/space/ss141213/WS/felix/trunk$ svn info
svn: This client is too old to work with working copy '.'.  You need
to get a newer Subversion client, or to downgrade this working copy.

for details.

Thanks,
Sahoo
