MKCOL 405 Error

Hi there,
I'm trying to start a symfony project, following the subversion
method.
I've got subversion installed, I've created the repository, and when
I
try to create the basic directory structure with :

$ svn mkdir -m "created default directory structure"
https://.blabla.googlecode.com/svn/trunk https://blabla.googlecode.co/svn/tags
https://blabla.googlecode.com/svn/branches

... I get this message after authentification :
"Server sent unexpected return value (405 Method Not Allowed) in
response to MKCOL request for..."

Using HTTP or HTTPS doesn't changes anything.
I've already been reading a lot about this error, but these topics
were related to PROPFIND or way further steps of the project setup.

Does ayone knows where I'm wrong ?

Thanks

Looks like it. It might have been whatever setup the repository in the first 
place also created the basic structure as well. If you try to create further 
directories it works? You can delete them once you're satisfied things are 
working the way you expect.

Funnily enough a colleague had this earlier today but I hadn't looked into the 
cause until now. I get this if the directory already exists. In that case 
it's a harmless if a bit obscure error message. I'm using a rather old server 
running 1.4 and client 1.5.7. You should be able to tell if this is the cause 
for your error by issuing the command and seeing what is already there in 
that directory

svn ls https://blabla.googlecode.com/svn
