Change path to repo on windows service.

[Heston James - Cold Beans <he...@coldbeans.co.uk>]

Hello Guys,

 

I've installed subversion using the one-click-setup application and its up
and running just great. However, I'm looking to change the default repo path
of svnserve and cant for the life of me figure out how it's done.

 

After looking through the manual it seems I can do this when manually
launching svnserve by specifying "-r c:/path/to/repos". However, I can't
figure out how to get this path changed for the windows service.

 

Can anyone advise me on how to do this?

 

Regards,

 

Heston James

Hi, 

For the sc command, it is well documented on subversion manual.

But if needs a fast way. Here is how

>> BEFORE EDITING REGISTRY, BEAWARE THAT IT MIGHT DAMAGE YOUR SYSTEM. BACKUP BEFORE MODIFY <<

1.) Open regedit registry editor by start -> run -> regedit

2.) Change the path to HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\[svn-service]\ImagePath

3.) Double-click it and modify the settings to whatever you needs.
