Issue with svnsync

Hello all,

In the company I work for, we need a Disaster Recovery (DR) approach for our repositories. The plan is to have two subversion servers, one in production and the second one as an image. If the first one goes down, the second one would take its place.  Of course, both servers would be synchronized one or several times a day to reduce inconsistences.

Looking for a solution, I found the Subversion 1.4.0. new feature called svnsync. I installed 1.4.0 in a server to do some tests, but I am getting the following errors: 

./svnsync init http://ny390-sf01a:9050/svn/ste-bak/wltwomo-l http://ny390-sf01a:9050/svn/ste/wltwomo-l
svnsync: DAV request failed; it's possible that the repository's pre-revprop-change hook either failed or is non-existent
svnsync: At least one property change failed; repository is unchanged

Before calling svnsync, I created the image repo using svnadmin create.

Does anybody have a clue on what could be wrong ?

Thanks a lot

Polo

See this:

You need to enable the pre-revprop-change hook on the server you are 
syncing to.

Hello all,

In the company I work for, we need a Disaster Recovery (DR) approach for our
repositories. The plan is to have two subversion servers, one in production
and the second one as an image. If the first one goes down, the second one
would take its place.  Of course, both servers would be synchronized one or
several times a day to reduce inconsistences.

Looking for a solution, I found the Subversion 1.4.0. new feature called
svnsync. I installed 1.4.0 in a server to do some tests, but I am getting
the following errors: 

./svnsync init http://ny390-sf01a:9050/svn/ste-bak/wltwomo-l
http://ny390-sf01a:9050/svn/ste/wltwomo-l
svnsync: DAV request failed; it's possible that the repository's
pre-revprop-change hook either failed or is non-existent
svnsync: At least one property change failed; repository is unchanged

Before calling svnsync, I created the image repo using svnadmin create.

Does anybody have a clue on what could be wrong ?

Thanks a lot
