Re: Commit error on Added files Reference to non-existent node in filesystem 'C:/Subversion/db'
I'm just attempting to clarify what you're doing: Let's say that you
want to add a bunch of files to http://myurl/svn/project as project
"FOO", you are do the following steps:
STEP #1: You create a repository location for your project FOO
C:\> svn mkdir http://myurl/svn/project/foo -m"Adding project
'FOO' to repository"
STEP #2: You create the trunk, branches, and tags folder for the project
C:\> svn mkdir http://myusr/svn/project/foo/trunk
[...]/foo/branches [...]/foo/tags -m'Adding branches, and tags to FOO'
STEP #3 You check out project FOO to your local machine:
C:\> svn co http://myusr/svn/project/foo/trunk foo
STEP #4 You add the files you want to project FOO
C:\> chdir foo
C:\FOO> xcopy C:\FOO-SOURCE\*.* . /s/e/q
STEP #5: Add the files copied into your Subversion work area to your
Subversion repository
C:\FOO> svn add --force *
STEP #6: Commit the changes
C:\FOO> svn commit -m"Added source files for project 'FOO'"
The problem you are having occurs in STEP #5.

It does not currently, though I hear it will in Subversion 1.6.0.

So, it isn't a timing issue due to http:// dropping your connection,
and it isn't an issue of two people simultaneously attempting to
access the directory via the "file://" protocol.
I really can't say what could be the problem. Anyone else on this list
has any ideas?
Does 'svnserve' generate any logs? Try running svnserve with the
--forground parameter, so you can see the output. That might give you
some clue as to why you're having this issue.

What's the protocol are you using to access your Subversion server
"http://", "svn://", "svn+ssh://", or "file://"?

I am doing this process on the same machine as my Subversion server.
In desperation I did try svnadmin recover even though I am not using the Berkeley DB and it did not help.

I'm also adding files to my repository right now. I've got some
projects with several thousand files, and haven't run into this issue.
If you were using Berkeley DB, I'd say do a "svnadmin recover" and
"svnadmin verify", but I can't say for certain why you'd be getting
this.
How is the network between you and your computer? Is it slow and maybe
dropping packets? Are you going over a VPN? Can you do this process on
the same machine as your Subversion server?
