[Subclipse-users] Null Pointer Exception on createRepository

Hi all,

Last year I worked on a project using SVNClientAdapter to automatically store and compare files in a repository. I managed to get this working completely successfully.

Recently I returned to this project to make some changes. I no longer had the version of subversion I'd used previously so I downloaded the latest Subversion Edge from CollabNet. When I tried upload a new file to a repository, the program threw a Null Pointer Exception. I've copied over the latest jars from Subclipse and svnant, and tried specifying the repository type (I'd initially left it null for the svnadmin default) but have made no progress.

The problem specifically occurs when calling createRepository() - this is the first SVN command called.

Any thoughts on what could be causing this problem? Would it be better just to roll back to last year's version of CollabNet Subversion?

This is the full error trace:
