Subversion Exception!

[Ajay Mahagaokar <AM...@s2sys.com>]

Hello:

 

I am using TortoiseSVN for the first time and got immediately into
trouble. My setup:

 

1.       Win7 64-bit

2.       VirtualBox with Win7 as host

3.       VM is VirtualBox Guest is Ubuntu 10.04 LTS (up to date).

4.       SVN Server is networked and a different m/c.

5.       SVN Working copy is on by VM - command line SVN works fine,
builds fine.

6.       I wanted to use the Tortoise GUI frontend to SVN so 

a.       I installed it

b.      Used file manager  (windows explorer) to move to the Samba share
where we have working directory

c.       Created a new directory (tortoisetest)

d.      Right clicked and did a checkout

e.      Got the below.

 

Any help is appreciated.

 

Thanks,

 

Ajay

What is m/c?

Working copies are not necessarily portable between systems, in 
particular not between MS Windows and POSIX systems, because the 
translation of line endings has different results there, so this setup 
is prone to errors. Another thing, where I'm not sure if that could also 
cause problems is that the working copies contain an SQLite database, 
which might also differ between systems (I'm not sure in this point, but 
a Berkeley database does differ). Keep your working copies local.

Another thing is that the database inside the WC requires file locking 
to work, which is not always guaranteed to 100% for network filesystems. 
Another reason to keep working copies local.

Question: You mention host and guest operating systems, is anything of 
that relevant? If I understand you right, I would think that all you 
need is a Win7/64-bit system and a Samba share. Is this fault even 
reproducible or did it occur just once?

Which URL did you check out? Also, I seem to remember some problems with 
certain paths (root of a share), where exactly did you check out the 
working copy?

Thanks for the great description! Not everybody takes the instructions 
to report what they did and to search the web seriously...
