Unable to open an ra_local session to URL
Hello,
I have used, and installed subversion before but am having a problem
doing my initial import (which should be simple) into my repository that
I just created. I have the following repository
bash-2.05# pwd
/code/sb
bash-2.05# ls -l
total 16
drwxr-xr-x 2 root other 512 Apr 5 12:58 conf
drwxr-xr-x 2 root other 512 Apr 5 12:58 dav
drwxr-sr-x 5 root other 512 Apr 5 12:58 db
-r--r--r-- 1 root other 2 Apr 5 12:58 format
drwxr-xr-x 2 root other 512 Apr 5 12:58 hooks
drwxr-xr-x 2 root other 512 Apr 5 12:58 locks
-rw-r--r-- 1 root other 379 Apr 5 12:58 README.txt
drwxr-xr-x 6 root other 512 Apr 5 12:59 rt
Which seems fine, so I try to import to it for the first time to make it
a working repository,
bash-2.05# svn import /code/sb file:///svn/sb/ -m "init import"
svn: Unable to open an ra_local session to URL
svn: Unable to open repository 'file:///svn/sb'
You can see that the directory /svn/sb is fine as well, I just created
it as the same user with some empty directories in it.
bash-2.05# pwd
/svn/sb
bash-2.05# ls -l
total 8
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 512 Apr 5 13:46 build
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 512 Apr 5 13:46 systemtest
I'm logged in as root, which is what I was logged in when I installed
subversion as well. I have been searching everywhere for an answer to
this which seems silly, but I can't find anything. Any help is much
appreciated,
- Jon

Other way around! :-)
$ svn help import | head -n 4
import: Commit an unversioned file or tree into the repository.
usage: import [PATH] URL
Recursively commit a copy of PATH to URL.
PATH is the path of the directory you want to import. URL is the URL
of your repository. So you need:
$ svn import /svn/sb file:///code/sb -m "Initial import"
