Hi

Thanks for the quick reply,
I choose to go with you first sugestion, to run the import command from
/reps so

svn import /repos/ file:///home/andsa344/repos_files/filterVolume/ -m
"Initial import"

But I still get the same error

svn: Unable to open an ra_local session to URL
svn: Unable to open reoisutiry
'file:///home/andsa344/repos_files/filterVolume'

in the directory /home/andsa344/repos_files/filterVolume is the files
that I want to import to the cvs server, and the /repos dir contains
conf, dav, db .... svn-commit.tmp
