svn copy fails (was Script: svn_load_dirs.pl)

[David Aldrich <Da...@EU.NEC.COM>]

Hi

Sorry for the multiple posts but I have refined my problem somewhat and would like to restate it. I can now isolate the problem from svn_load_dirs.pl.

We have just migrated two repositories from a 1.4.6 server to a new 1.5.2 server. On both repos svn copy fails if the source path is on the server. Copying from the local working copy works. Please see the two scenarios below:

===============================================
C:\zSvnWorkingCopies\svntest>svn cp -m Tagging https://172.xxx/subversion/svntest/trunk https://172.xxx/subversion/svntest/tags/DRA_1
svn: MERGE request failed on '/subversion/svntest'
svn: Reference to non-existent node '0.0.r-1/-1' in filesystem '/home/svn/svntest/db'

C:\zSvnWorkingCopies\svntest>svn cp -m Tagging trunk https://172.xxxx/subversion/svntest/tags/DRA_1

Committed revision 28.

C:\zSvnWorkingCopies\svntest>
===============================================

I executed these with a svn 1.4.6 client on Windows.

Please can anyone suggest why the first command fails?

BR

David
