problems with svn:ignore

I keep getting this mesage when I try to set the svn:ignore property.

svn: Explicit target required

I have a bunch of files generated at runtime that I don't need
versioned, nor do I want to see them when I do "svn st"

I checked the docs, and "Practical Subversion" but don't seem to be
having much luck using the following format

% svn propset svn:ignore tmp/*.log
svn: 'tmp/pswp.log' is not under version control

if I sdd it to version control and specify the file

% svn propset svn:ignore tmp/pswp.log
svn: Explicit target required ('tmp/pswp.log' interpreted as prop value)

Any help? Clarifications?
