Issue with Update - unknown hostname

[Egbert Heslinga <Eg...@ventura-uk.com>]

Hello,

The installation I'm working with is:

TortoiseSVN 1.6.8, Build 19260 - 32 Bit , 2010/04/16 20:20:11
Subversion 1.6.11, 
apr 1.3.8
apr-utils 1.3.9
neon 0.29.3
OpenSSL 0.9.8k 25 Mar 2009
zlib 1.2.3

This does not concern a bug so much as not quite knowing how to deal with 
a situation, and wondering whether there is any.

A project included an external reference. The server in the external 
reference ceased to exist. I tortoise-deleted the folder that referenced 
the deceased server, committed, then updated immediately. 

The update however produced the same message as before the commit of the 
delete of the invalid reference:

Command: Update 
External failed: C:\dev\Ventura\Vespam\_vendorVentura.NHibernate 
Error: Unknown hostname 'cpl2kmbenr04' 
Completed: At revision: 45 

It seems as though the project now no longer references this host, the 
update will forever try to for some reason. Is there a way to correct the 
repository to prevent this error message in future?

Many thanks in advance for any help,

Since this is about the usage of Subversion, and not the development of it,
it is off-topic here.  I suggest you ask on the users@apache.subversion.orglist.

Thanks,
