Client error against svnserve

I installed Subversion 1.1.1 on a Windows 2003 DC. I
issued the following commands:
svnadmin create --fs-type fsfs
k:\SharedData\Subversion
(I uncommented the general section, anon-access,
auth-access, passwd-db and realm lines in
svnserve.conf and also created the passwd file)
svnserve -d -r k:\SharedData\Subversion


On the client side (Windows XP SP2) I typed the
following:
C:\>svn --editor-cmd notepad mkdir
svn://server/Subversion/ProjectA

Log message unchanged or not specified
a)bort, c)ontinue, e)dit
c
svn: File not found: transaction '0-1', path
'/Subversion/ProjectA'

What am I doing wrong here?
Thanks, Lars

This -r option creates a 'virtual root' at k:\SharedData\Subversion.

This virtual root is also the location of the repository...

...therefore, from the client's perspective, the repository is now 
located at

    svn://server/

So you'd want to run 'svn mkdir svn://server/ProjectA'.

svnserve is sharing the projects below the "Subversion" directory, so 
dont include that in the name. Try:

svn --editor-cmd notepad mkdir svn://server/ProjectA

or change svnserve to be:

svnserve -d -r k:\SharedData and use your original command line. This is 
useful when you have several repositories.
