Hi Mark,

Thanks a lot for your detailed instructions!

I created a directory as you suggested (D:\repository\svnrepo), a
structure was created. But when I tried to open an SVN Repository in the
eclipse preferences, I always had an exception
Error validation location "org.tigris.subversion.javahl.ClientException"
Couldn't open a repository
svn: unable to open an ra_local session to URL
svn: unable to open repository 'file://D:/repository/svnrepo'

Then I thought about your sentence "If you use the C: drive...". I
actually wanted to reserve C for programs and d for all data, but for
curiosity I created the directory for "file:///repos/svnrepo" - and it
worked!

Could this be a problem or a bug?

Thanks a lot for your help

Markus
